Freshwater Pearl Cufflinks

Immerse yourself in the opulence and history of Tsarist Russia with this exceptionally rare pair of vintage Russian Imperial presentation cufflinks, masterfully crafted in gilt silver and exquisitely detailed with regal portraiture. Each cufflink showcases the profile portraits of the last Russian Emperor, Nicholas II, and his Empress, Alexandra Feodorovna, preserved in striking relief—a tribute to their enduring legacy and the twilight of Imperial Russia. Encircling each portrait is a cobalt blue enamel rim, meticulously applied and accented with a delicate garland of genuine freshwater pearls, echoing the aesthetic refinement of Russian court accessories from the late Imperial era. The chain-link style design ensures comfortable wear while maintaining period authenticity. The reverse side of each cufflink bears the 88 Russian silver standard hallmark, denoting a silver purity of 91.66%, along with the maker’s mark, affirming both origin and craftsmanship.
