Description

This is a smart pair of Vintage Elizabeth II Sterling Silver Cuff Links from the 1960s. The cuff links are chain linked with each octagonal plate having engine turned decoration on the top in Art Deco style. They come supplied in a modern gift box.

The cuff links are made in Birmingham by Henry Griffith & Sons Ltd and date to 1962. Henry Griffith founded his firm in the 1870s, becoming Henry Griffith & Sons around 1890. They specialised in silver jewellery, smoking accessories and small personal items. In 1919 they relocated to Leamington Spa in Warwickshire and remained in business until at least the late 1970s.

Condition is extremely good, with no dings or dents, no damage to the chains and just the superficial surface wear that you have to expect after 60 years of good service. Please make sure to view all the photographs.

Each cuff link plate is 1.6cm by 1.2cm and each set extends 2.3cm. All in, the cuff links weigh 7.2g of solid Sterling Silver.

The hallmarks, on the backs of the cuff links, are well struck and clear to read. They show the lion passant for Sterling Silver, the anchor assay mark for Birmingham, the date letter N for 1962 and the H.G & S makers' mark for Henry Griffith & Sons.
