A huge choice of cufflinks from wimbledon cufflink company
Wimbledon Cufflink company is a leading manufacturer of cufflinks in the UK and we have a huge choice of different patterns and designs in both gold and silver. We cater for a wide range of tastes and include a lot of cufflinks which depict a certain country through the use of symbols and designs which are forever connected to that country.
For example, close to home we have the English Oak, the English Rose, the English Lion, the Scottish Thistle, the Scottish Lion, and so on. Then in the Irish cufflinks, we have the Shamrock in white and gold on deep blue background. The Shamrock was first mentioned in early Celtic literature, and later by Edmund Campion in the Elizabethan era. St Patrick used the shamrock as a metaphor for the Holy Trinity, and it has been a symbol of Ireland since the 18th century.

A Few Things You May Not Know About Ireland
The island of Ireland is the second largest in the island in the British Isles after Great Britain. It is separated from mainland Britain by the North Channel, the Irish Sea, and St George’s Channel. It is divided into the Republic of Ireland, known simply as Ireland, and Northern Ireland which is part of the United Kingdom.
The overall population is 6.6 million, of which 4.8 million live in Ireland and 1.8 million in Northern Ireland. The climate is influenced by the Atlantic Ocean so is moderate, with the winters mild, although summers are cooler than Northern Europe. There is a fair amount of cloud cover and rainfall.
The most popular sport in Ireland is Gaelic football with around 2,600 clubs on the island. Around one third of all sports attendances are at Gaelic football, followed by hurling, soccer, and rugby.
Ireland is, of course, associated with Guinness, which is a type of stout, although since the mid-20th century it has lost sales to lager. Also popular is a cider made by Magners (known in the Republic as Bulmers). A popular soft drink is red lemonade.

Many Cufflink Designs Are Inspired By A Man’s Heritage
Over the years, cufflinks have had their ups and downs, sometimes being in fashion and at other times not, although men of importance who wear a suit to work and on other special occasions have always worn them. They are small works of art and they say something about the man himself – that he accepts that sartorial elegance is something of which to be proud.
While not everyone wears cufflinks today, there are nonetheless thousands upon thousands of different designs available. You only have to search online to come up with so many different designs that it is almost impossible top make a snap decision about buying a pair. There is everything from high class to jokey, and many different designs in between.
Some of the cufflinks which you can buy are inspired by the birth nation of the individual wearing them. For example, you can get cufflinks with English designs such as the Three Lions or the English Oak. There are Scottish patterns like the Scottish Thistle and Scottish Lion, and there are Celtic design cufflinks such as the Welsh Dragon.

CUFFLINKS THAT ARE DESIGNED TO YOUR OWN SPECIFICATION
At Wimbledon Cufflink Company we do get asked why we make so many different patterns of cufflinks. Surely nobody wears cufflinks any more?
It may surprise you to learn that if you Google “buy cufflinks” you get no less than 62,000,000 results! It is true that not as many men in the UK wear cufflinks as they did in the mid-1800s, yet there are still a large number of men who do. Why? Because they want to be seen for the person they are: an individual. They don’t want to be seen as part of the snowflake generation or the millennials (although some millennials do wear cufflinks). They want to stand out.
The fact is that there are thousands of different designs of cufflinks from which you can choose, and if you go online you will probably spend a good couple of hours searching through them in order to find the perfect cufflinks that make a statement about you as an individual.

Gold Cufflinks Add A Touch Of Distinction
It would be fair to say that not every man wears a Rolex watch, but those who do are men of distinction and stand out from the crowd. A Rolex watch indicates a certain level of achievement because a Rolex is not a cheap item.
Much the same thing applies to gold cufflinks. Not every man wears gold cufflinks – heck, not all men wear cufflinks anyway: many men prefer the single button cuff because it is easy to do up, and you don’t have to spend money on cufflinks nor have several pairs for different occasions.
But as with the Rolex, the double cuff combined with a pair of gold cufflinks says something about the individual wearing them. He is a man who takes the trouble to dress smartly: perhaps the saying “dress to impress” fits the bill here. This man is not going to be seen out in any old casual clothes. He has more respect both for himself and for those with whom he will associate during the day.

Men Of Distinction Can Now Wear Personalised Cufflinks
It is very true to say that not all men, by any means, wear cufflinks. In fact, it is probably true to say that there is a majority of men who buy a shirt with a single cuff and buttons, and they do so for a reason. We all want everything to be easy, and a single cuff is easy: you don’t need to buy cufflinks and you can just do the cuffs up in a second.
This is why men who do wear cufflinks – and although they may be in the minority there are still an awful lot of them – stand out from the crowd. They have taken the trouble to buy cufflinks with a particular pattern or design on them and they take a little longer to put on than just doing up a button.
Cufflinks are a small decorative work of art and say so much more about a man than the single cuff. Better still are silver cufflinks which add an air of grace and luxury to the cuff.

We are always producing new designs at wimbledon cufflink company
At Wimbledon Cufflink Company we are always creating new designs of cufflinks. Somebody in the office comes up with a new idea so we sit down and chat about it, then if we think it’s a good idea, we’ll draw a design and if everyone approves, we’ll make it and add it to our stocks.
This way, over the years, we have come up with some ideas that our customers love, and they keep coming back to us to see what’s new. So, for instance, we now have the SPQR cufflink which is a stunning design in gold on a blue background. SPQR stands for Senatus Populusque Romanus and it means “the Senate and People of Rome��� but of course, if you are a Latin scholar you would know that.
Then we have the Mediterranean Sunburst cufflinks which are based on the design of a Spanish tile and are just the thing to make a startling impression on everyone you meet. These have the design in gold, red, and blue. We also have our circuit board design. The circuit board is the thing that connects and supports electrical components which power just about everything around us from computers to clocks.
We also produce a pair of cufflinks showing the double helix symbol of DNA. We all have DNA, but it was only discovered in the 20th century. The double helix is similar to two serpents entwined around each other, and we depict them in gold on light blue.

Why Not Wear Canadian Cufflinks?
If you are a gentleman who likes to dress smartly with a suit, tie, and double cuff shirt adorned with cufflinks, and you also happen to be a Canadian, or perhaps have Canadian relatives, why not get cufflinks that display a Canadian emblem?
There are several cufflinks of Canada that you could buy, the most obvious emblem being the maple leaf in red on white as displayed on the Canadian flag. The maple leaf flag was finally decided upon in 1965 after 40 years of discussion because parliament couldn’t agree on the design.
However, the maple leaf is not the only choice. What about the beaver? The beaver was given official status as an emblem of Canada when “An Act to provide for the recognition of the Beaver (Castor canadensis) as a symbol of the sovereignty of Canada” received royal assent on March 24, 1975.

Define Yourself With Military Cufflinks
If you have ever worked for the armed forces, you understand the meaning of discipline. Sadly, in the 21st century, this has been lost on a lot of people whose whole attitude to life is “do whatever you want and to heck with everyone else”. Without going into a lot of detail, this attitude stems back to the 1960’s and is responsible for many of the problems we have today.
If you have worked in the armed services, or still do, this will be the complete opposite of your own attitude to life which is to help and serve others. Furthermore, to show your respect for others you dress impressively, both in uniform and out of it.
This is why, when out of uniform, many servicemen or ex-servicemen would not dream of wearing shirts with a buttoned cuff but will always add that final touch of exceptional glamour with a double cuff shirt and a pair of cufflinks.

A pair of cufflinks: the perfect christmas gift for your man
There are a number of reasons why cufflinks make the perfect Christmas gift for the man in your life. Not the least of these is that if a man is a fan of cufflinks, his collection of shirts will mostly, if not entirely, consist of those with double cuffs, so he NEEDS to wear cufflinks. He will probably already own several pairs, but you can never have too many. They are only small items of adornment, so they are easy to collect and store (and easy to wrap too!).
Most men need to dress smartly for work, and also for social occasions such as dinner parties, and a pair of cufflinks that reflect his personality are a way of distinguishing himself from the next man.
Cufflinks are available in a vast range of designs: you only have to go online, and you will find thousands upon thousands of patterns, materials, and designs, some including gemstones, and a huge choice of colours, so there will be something that fits ideally with your man’s choice of shirt and tie colours. Furthermore, cufflinks come in a huge choice of prices, too, from just a few pounds up to several thousands, depending on the materials used and the designer. If money is no object, instead of buying him yet another Rolex or Patek Philippe watch, why not invest in a pair of cufflinks with rubies or sapphires included in the design?

The Fashion For Cufflinks Changes Every Few Years
As time progresses, we move into eras that have different fashions and they seem to come around every few years, then disappear, then often reappear. Take cufflinks for men, for instance. They were not generally worn, except by men of high standing, until the middle of the 19th century when more men moved into the middle classes and at the same time the industrial revolution meant that cufflinks could be mass-produced. It stayed like this for nearly a century, until the 1960’s when men dressed less formally.
However, in the 80’s and 90’s there was a move back into more formal dress for work, and a suit and tie was the norm, along with, of course, double cuffs on shirts and cufflinks. Many men spent more money on them, too, and would choose silver cufflinks or gold cufflinks to display a certain status.

Today, Men Can Have Personalised Cufflinks Produced
Cufflinks for men actually date back as far as the 15th century but didn’t become worn generally until the middle of the 19th century when more men became part of the middle classes. They began to wear formal dress – a suit during the working day and a dinner jacket for the evening. At the same time the industrial revolution meant that cufflinks could be mass-produced, and they became available to everyone rather than just for the upper echelons of society.
With the arrival of the 20th century, designers began to experiment with different materials, colours, and designs, and enamel became very popular for cufflinks because it could be used in a wide range of colours and is a relatively affordable material.
However, in the 1960’s people began to dress less formally, and most of the men’s shirts of the day had buttons instead of double cuffs. However, moving into the 1980’s and 90’s, it became the norm for men to dress more formally again for work, and wear a suit and tie, and cufflinks came back into fashion.

At wimbledon cufflink company we get lots of ideas in our coffee break
At Wimbledon Cufflink company we have a huge range of different designs of cufflinks in both silver and in gold and we are constantly adding new designs to the range. During our coffee breaks, we often kick ideas around and somebody will say “Why don’t we produce a pair of cufflinks with ‘xyz’ on them?” ‘Xyz’ could be anything, but if we all agree it’s a good idea we’ll just sit down and draught a design and then if we all like it we just put it into production. Having bright ideas is what we are all about, and our customers know that there will always be something new and exciting for them with which to adorn their shirtsleeves.
This is how we had the ideas for our aeronautical cufflinks that we produced last year. We knew it was the 100th anniversary of the RAF and we wanted to produce cufflinks to celebrate it, but we hadn’t got any bright ideas until one of our number suggested the jet engine. Then we remembered that Frank Whittle was a young RAF officer in the 1920’s and hit upon the idea of powering a plane with a turbine, and hence the jet engine was born. So we set about the design and came up with the red, white and blue of the RAF with an innovative twist to display it as a jet engine.

Cufflinks Make A Man Stand Out From The Crowd
Despite the widespread availability of men’s shirts that come with matching buttons in a huge choice of different colours and patterns, men of substance still prefer to use the shirt with a double cuff, or French cuff, as it is often known and clip them together with cufflinks.
Why?
Because it makes them stand out. It isn’t difficult when you stop to think about it. Our members of parliament – the male ones, anyway – nearly all wear nice suits with shirts with double cuffs wearing cufflinks of their own choice.
Yes, you may see some of our parliamentarians – or at least their “advisors” such as Dominic Cummings – wearing a T-shirt and jeans, but you most certainly will never see Boris in that kind of dress. He knows full well that in order to retain the respect of the people he has to wear a suit and tie, and very simply look “smart”. People have respect for those who look smart but tend to have a lot less respect for those who don’t. We won’t get into a lot of politics here, because it is not just about politics.

The Use Of Cufflinks Makes You Stand Out
Over the last few years cufflinks have made a big comeback for men who need to appear important in their sphere, whatever that may be. Cufflinks became fashionable for all men in the mid 1800’s, having previously been the prerogative of the most senior people in the country, such as Royals, and other titled figures.
The industrial revolution changed all that, and cufflinks began to be worn by all classes, used as a sign of being “different”. They were suddenly cheap to manufacture, and men could express their own individuality by choosing cufflinks of a certain pattern or with a specific emblem on them.
This went on for many years until the advent of the single-cuffed shirt with – horror of horrors! – BUTTONS on it. These shirts are still widely available today as they don’t require a man to choose and purchase cufflinks, so there is a built-in cost saving.

A Very Brief History Of Cufflinks
Cufflinks have a long history, dating back to the Middle Ages when they were popularised by Royals such as King Charles II. He began to order special cufflinks to be made in order to add a touch of class at weddings, state banquets, and other gatherings.
In France, cufflinks also were worn by the upper echelons, with King Louis XIV going a step further and tying his shirt cuffs together with ribbons and strings as well as cufflinks, in order to underline his status.
Gradually, the wearing of cufflinks began to filter down in society and they became very popular with businessmen in the 19th century during the Industrial Revolution. They were made of all sorts of different materials, and gold cufflinks, silver cufflinks, and even platinum cufflinks were made. A wide range of patterns and designs was used, and these included engraved cufflinks and cufflinks containing many different stones from diamonds to rubies, emeralds, sapphires, and many lesser gemstones.
Around this time, a new style of cufflink appeared, the French Cuff which had twin designs facing each other on either side of the cuff. During the mid-19th century almost all men wore cufflinks, but this didn’t last because of the reappearance of shirts with buttons attached, and cufflinks were relegated to the bottom of the drawer, only being worn on formal occasions.
However, they made a reappearance in the 1920’s and today are worn by men of fashion who understand how important it is to appear well-dressed.

Some Of The Designs Of North American Cufflinks That Are Available
Cufflinks have made a big comeback in the last few years for men who like to dress the part and look smart. You can use cufflinks to make a statement about almost anything, because there are so many different patterns from which to choose.
For example, suppose you would like some North American cufflinks. You might suspect that you could get American cufflinks with the US flag on them, and you would be right. However, you can get them not only in an oblong flag shape but also in a circular design. If you really want to show solidarity with our American friends, you can get a pair with one circular link depicting the US flag and the other showing the Union flag.
