    Your coin examples reminded me that I do have a pair of vintage rampant lion cufflinks, with the rampant lions being silver inlaid in onyx (I think). Those ought to be perfect, since they aren't too bright.
    That's great! Hey, you can never go wrong with a pair of vintage cufflinks.

    Cheers,

    Yes of course, you are quite right to ask if you are not sure. I am sorry. Its interesting that what seems so obvious to me, is not to others and I must remember that.

    For a very wide range of materials and double cuffs try http://www.tmlewin.co.uk Reasonable prices and range of collar styles. Much better value for money than some other Jermyn Street shirtmakers such as Hilditch and Key, Turnbull and Asser, Charles Tyrwhitt etc and the quality of tailoring in my view is superior to all these and I know. Until about 6 months ago I had 227 shirts nearly all from Lewins!

    They also do great silk ties with plenty of body to them
