    1800s cufflink?

    I found this at and older home in a suburb close by. I believe it is from the late 1800s. There are no markings on the back I can see. Pretty cool enamel work.

    pretty interesting cufflink , I would be unsure about their age if i had to guess it but enameling was very popular from the very late 1800's through the 1920's.

    Very nice find, and cleaned up well I see. Definitely display worthy.

    Not your everyday found cufflinks, that is for sure, very nice. I agree with Dan, most likely late 1800s into 1900s possibly.
