An attractive pair of simple Art Deco double-sided cufflinks, each face formed from a round cabochon amber simply set in a 14K yellow gold collet.

The result would look good with a blue suit, but even better with khaki or brown. The backs are signed for Sansbury & Nellis and are marked “14K.”

It tests for silver, but not definitively for sterling, so could be European in origin. It is unmarked. The pin measures 2 1/2 in...
