    Default Equality Plus.

    The posh shirt shops are now selling tops with double cuffs for women, a form of equality, which is good for me, because it’s brought on a new demand for cufflinks.

    For the outer buttons I bezel-set some composite stones found at a Rock ‘N’ Gem show years ago.

    For the inner ones, I avoided the traditional bars and torpedoes and came up with some twiggy things with leaves instead.
    The two sides are connected by a short chain, made from five jump rings in all.

    Women’s hands are generally quite small and will easily pass through a closed cuff. So the links can be fully inserted first and need only come off on wash days. A definite plus.

    Loath to put the rest of the stones back into store, I made a suite, hopefully not all to be worn together and a handmade chain, as there is not much in the way of Argentium chains to be bought at present.

    Dennis.
