  Lyn Gaylord : Lyn Gaylord had been an avid collector of 19th century treasures for many years before she made a career out of her passion. Her fascination with these precious collectibles dates back to a trip she made to Europe with her daughter Jenny, over 15 years ago. The pair roamed the markets of London and Paris falling deeply in love with the history and drama of these magnificent objects of art. This was also the beginning of their yearly trip to the island of Capri and the start of their love affair with all things Italian. When, some years later, Lyn discovered a tobacco box with a particularly charming relief, inspiration struck and the idea for Lyn Gaylord Accessories was born. Lyn and Jenny still travel abroad several times a year to scour the markets for hidden treasures. With over 250 designs in the repertoire, the Lyn Gaylord collections have expanded to include not just buckles, but cufflinks, hand-blown crystal vanity jars with sterling lids. A glimpse of the artist at work in her Bell Island studio, surrounded by the waters of Long Island Sound and a dizzying array of collectibles, and it's clear this is truly a labor of love.

How Cufflinks Work

The common mechanisms are few. A toggle back, the familiar T-bar, passes through the cuff holes lengthwise and turns crosswise to lock. A whale back flips flat to insert and folds to hold. A stud or ball back has a fixed decorative head and a smaller ball that pushes through the holes. A chain links two decorative faces with a short chain, the oldest and dressiest style, and silk knots are simply knotted cord pulled through. Toggle backs dominate retail because they are easy to fit one-handed, which matters when the wearer is dressing in the shirt.

Collecting follows the same logic as other small antiques: makers' marks, hallmarks, unusual mechanisms and period designs carry the value, and Lyn Gaylord's line, built from 19th century finds, sits directly in that tradition. For daily wear, one silver pair, one pearl or onyx pair for evening, and one novelty pair cover nearly every shirt a wearer owns.

Common Questions

What shirts do cufflinks require?

Cufflinks require French cuffs, also called double cuffs, shirts whose cuffs fold back and are pierced with holes on both layers instead of carrying a sewn button. The cufflink passes through all the holes and holds the folded cuff closed. Some single cuffs are made convertible, with both a button and a cufflink hole. A shirt wardrobe built on cufflinks therefore starts with French cuff shirts in the rotation, and the retailers here, several of whom describe their lines as made for designer wedding French cuff shirts, sell into exactly that wardrobe.

What are cufflinks made from?

Almost everything that takes a small, hard finish. Sterling silver and gold are the classic metals, often hallmarked and engravable, as in the English Cufflinks range. Enamel gives color, silk knots give a soft inexpensive option, mother of pearl and onyx give the traditional formal faces, and gemstones give the jeweled end represented by Rare Splendors. Designer and novelty cufflinks add crystal, carbon fiber, wood, and miniature working mechanisms. The material sets the formality: silk and silver for business, pearl and onyx for evening, gems for occasions.

Why are cufflinks a standard groomsmen gift?

Because they are personal, permanent and sized for giving: one pair suits any groomsman, they are worn on the day itself with the wedding's formal shirts, and they keep as a memento afterward. Retailers build lines around the practice, Cufflinks Depot lists personalized and custom groomsmen cufflinks among its specialties, and engraving a silver pair with initials or the date is the standard upgrade. A matched set for the party, or a different design per groomsman, are the two usual approaches.
