A cufflink (also cuff link or cuff-link) is a decorative fastener worn by men or women to fasten the two sides of the cuff on a dress shirt or blouse.
The forerunner of today’s shirt first appeared in the early-16th
century, its ruffled wristband finished with small openings on either
side that tied together with "cuff strings." Although cuff strings would
remain popular well into the nineteenth century, it was during the
reign of Louis XIV
that shirt sleeves started to be fastened with boutons de manchette, or
"sleeve buttons," typically identical pairs of coloured glass buttons
joined together by a short, linked chain.
By 1715, simple, paste-glass buttons had given way to pairs of two, decoratively painted or jeweled studs, typically diamonds, connected by ornate gold links.
Hence was born the cuff "link", whether simple glass buttons or gilded and bejeweled studs.
Cufflinks are designed only for use with shirts which have buttonholes on both sides but no buttons.
These may be either single or double-length ("French") cuffs, and may
be worn either "kissing," with the ends pinched together, or
"barrel-style," with one end overlapping the other. Kissing cuffs are
usually preferred.
Cufflink designs vary widely. The simplest design consists of a short
post or chain connecting two disc-shaped parts. The part positioned on
the most visible side is usually larger; a variety of designs can
connect the smaller piece: It may be small enough to fit through the
button hole like a button would; it may be separated and attached from
the other side; or it may have a portion that swivels on the central
post, aligning with the post while the link is threaded through the
button-hole and swiveling into a position at right angles to the post
when worn.
"Dumbbell" or shank-style cufflinks were popular during the early-20th century, particularly in America.
The visible part of a cufflink is often monogrammed
or decorated in some way. There are numerous styles including novelty
cufflinks, traditional cufflinks, contemporary cufflinks, utility
cufflinks, and humorous cufflinks.
