The Pick: A truly classic pair of cufflinks

A good pair of cufflinks always tell a story, and the singular designs of London-based brand Tateossian are no exception. Born in Kuwait and educated in French schools, designer Robert Tateossian is a true international. With an insatiable appetite for travel, he tours the globe in search of inspiration, his work a testament to the wealth of cultures he has encountered. This striking pair of rose gold-plated cufflinks, for example, feature lucent, mother of pearl faces with a guilloché finish – a pattern of ornamental braiding first popular in ancient Greece and Rome. Lustrous and elegant, they will complete a black tie outfit with panache, or simply add a refined, classical edge to your weekday wardrobe.
