A variety of different methods were used before cuff links, as we know them today, were produced. Such as small chains fastened with gold, silver or glass buttons and knots made of silk.
The simple design consisting of a short post connecting two disc-shaped parts, soon became extremely popular with the British gentry and cuff links became a sophisticated part of every gentleman's wardrobe. By the 19th century, the gold and silver discs were replaced by precious stones and jewels, a move which made cuff links increasing popular with ladies.
