Before that time, shirt cuffs were kept from flapping about by being tied together with short pieces of string, but when the French King Louis XIV came to the throne in 1643, that was on the way out, and in came decorative and pretty glass buttons that were joined together by a small chain. These were called cufflinks, rather obviously, because they linked the two sides of the cuff together. Today, you can still buy cufflinks that have two decorative faces joined together by a chain, but there are also several other designs.

That is still true today: of course, you can buy very expensive cufflinks with gemstones in them. However, cufflinks are not just for the wealthy who can afford a few thousand pounds. You can buy cufflinks online for less than a tenner.

Since those days their popularity has come and gone several times, and indeed they lost a lot of fans when buttoned single cuffs arrived on the scene. However, they are still worn much more than you might think. If you Google “buy cufflinks” you get over 36 million results, and if you click on any of the suppliers, you will find that they have dozens of different designs from which to choose.
