Arrives in Handsome Gift Packaging

The substantial heft is noteworthy. The fine detailing in the gold-plated claws is beautiful. And the deep Prussian blue balls of lapis lazuli, with their minute flecks of gold-color pyrite, are almost iridescent. The smaller ends easily button into my French cuffs, but are sufficiently snug that there is no fear of their becoming lost. I am now considering a set of Eagle Claw Cufflinks with Onyx Balls.

Eagle Claw Cufflinks with Tiger's Eye Balls - 925 Sterling Silver Gold Plated - Fort Belvedere

Precious Lapis Lazuli and Silver

Inspired by aquiline imagery that has proliferated for millennia as a symbol of strength and dignity, these cufflinks depict finely carved eagle’s claws grasping balls made from a semi-precious stone. Handcrafted by master jewelers, these cufflinks are intended to stand the test of time, both as a timeless style icon and in the literal sense.

With a solid body made with 925-fineness sterling silver and thickly plated with brilliant platinum, these cufflinks are a sight to see. Silver is a timeless classic, and our deep, rich silver will perfectly complement your outfits at any formality level. A thick plating ensures that the platinum silver will not rub off with regular wear and imparts a rich luster that will truly stand the test of time and allows you to enjoy the look and feel of solid platinum silver cufflinks.

In the claws of our eagles are clasped lapis lazuli balls. Once treasured as more valuable than gold, lapis lazuli is a deep, rich blue that pairs effortlessly with most of the colors in menswear. Unlike inferior examples of this semi-precious stone, Fort Belvedere’s lapis lazuli does not feature the lighter shades of blue typical of lower-quality stones. Because this semi-precious stone is natural, there will be subtle variations that make each stone unique, and your stones will vary from those seen in the pictures.

These cufflinks were intentionally designed to function at a variety of formalities with the widest possible range of looks. At the office, on a date, or just out and about, these eagle claw cufflinks will give you the confidence and dignified aire of the mighty eagle! They can be worn with dark or light suits, three-piece suits, casual ensembles, or sport coat combinations. They are a fantastic choice for everyday wear or for travel because they are so versatile. They are appropriate for any informal outfit and can even be worn with many formal ensembles.

Fort Belvedere carries these same cufflinks in both gold and silver to suit any ensemble. The balls are also available as Carnelian, Malachite, Tiger’s Eye, Lapis Lazuli, or Onyx stones, so they can harmonize effortlessly with looks in any color of the rainbow.

Heritage-Grade Hand-Carved Cufflinks

The semi-precious stones that decorate these cufflinks are the first thing that people notice, and for good reason: each stone is sourced from reputable dealers and undergoes a rigorous quality control regiment to ensure that only the finest stones make their way into the final product. The result? Truly astounding semi-precious stones that provide an unforgettable flash of color.

To ensure their durability, the bodies of these cufflinks have been cast from 925 sterling silver. While we considered making these cufflinks out of solid gold or platinum, we recognized that this would be cost prohibitive for many of our loyal customers. Therefore, we decided to utilize sterling silver for the bodies and then thickly plate each stud in a precious metal.

With a plating of 5 to 6 microns in thickness, these cufflinks look and wear exactly like examples crafted from solid gold or platinum, but at a fraction of the cost. The ethereal glint of shimmering platinum or the vibrant shine of gold marks these cufflinks as unique pieces of art that you will proudly pass on to your children.

Eagle Claw Cufflinks with Deep Blue Lapis Lazuli Balls 925 Sterling Silver Vermeil Gold - handmade by master jeweler - Fort Belvedere

Perfectly Proportioned Dimensions

These cufflinks are sized according to the refined and understated conventions of the Golden Age of Menswear and were rigorously tested with shirts with cuff buttonholes ranging from 13 to 19 mm, or .5” to .75,” to ensure an elegant position and a secure hold.

Length: 35mm or 1.38"

Large Ball Diameter: Approximately 12mm or 0.48"

Small Ball Diameter: Approximately 8mm - 0.32."

Please note that the additional width created by the claws around the smaller ball ensures a secure fit within the cufflink buttonhole.

Weight: 14 grams.

How to Wear These Cufflinks

These cufflinks are designed to be worn with a double, or French, cuff. Traditionally, you should endeavor to match the other metals in your outfit, such as a wristwatch, belt buckle, collar jewelry, or rings, with the metal of your cufflinks.

Fort Belvedere carries these same cufflinks with either gold or silver plating and clasping one of six different semi-precious stones.

Jewelry That Gets Better with Age

With regular use, your Fort Belvedere jewelry should not require any special cleaning and will naturally develop a beautiful, subtle patina that imparts personality and uniqueness.

If desired, a quality precious metal cleaner can be used sparingly to bring out a brighter shine on the metal, but this is not necessary. All of our jewelry is sturdy enough that you can wear it without concern and can look forward to passing them on to your children or even grandchildren.

What makes these eagle claw cufflinks special?

Cufflinks have been used for over a century to close men’s shirt sleeves, positioned, originally, at the top of the cuff before moving to the bottom. Through the decades, quality construction and elegant design have always set superlative cufflinks apart from mediocre cufflinks.

Classic cufflinks during the Golden Age of Menswear were designed to be works of art viewable from all sides. Therefore, both the front and back of the cufflinks were beautifully decorated on both the faces and the post, often with intricate details and even precious stones. Soon, however, the cheaper and easier-to-make T-bar cufflink gained prominence, and genuine double-sided cufflinks were worn only by menswear connoisseurs.

Believing that cufflinks are an extension of the style and personality of the wearer, Fort Belvedere has revived the classic, timeless, and elegant cufflinks that look just as lovely in the back as they do in the front, because every aspect of a gentleman’s wardrobe should be refined and beautiful.

Details & Specs

Handmade Eagle Claw Cufflinks

Just like a bespoke suit, the quality offered by a handmade piece of jewelry is beyond compare. These eagle claw cufflinks were inspired by the vintage masterpieces created by Jean Michel Schlumberger, who famously designed men’s cufflinks for Tiffany & Company. With that same dedication to craft, and a desire to emulate the elegant and timeless motif of the eagle, we designed and made our own cufflinks. At every stage of production, from the carving of the design, the casting of the metal, and the setting of the semi-precious stone ball, the work is done by hand.
Intricately Carved Claw Detailing

Our unrivaled production process makes it possible to emphasize the tiniest details in these beautiful eagle claw cufflinks. Each cufflink is balanced with a post of sufficient length to ensure a secure, well-positioned fit with double-cuffed shirts that will not snag or catch on the buttonhole thanks to the perfectly sized balls at either end. The eagle’s claws are proportional and intricate, and each ball is securely set in place. The entire piece is also built to last and will become a treasured heirloom for your family for generations.
Timeless Aquiline Design

With their fine carving and close attention to detail, these eagle claw cufflinks are truly works of art. By combining the organic and natural lines of the eagle’s claw with the smooth roundness of the semi-precious stone balls, these cufflinks can be easily dressed up or down to suit a variety of formalities. Their unique design is a welcome departure from the traditionally boring look of many dress cufflinks, and the ability to mix and match different metals and stones provides an almost unlimited color palette for various outfits and wardrobes.
Cufflinks Cast in Solid 925 Sterling Silver

The overwhelming majority of modern cufflinks are made hollow to save time and money. Because of our dedication to functionality and appearance, Fort Belvedere refused to compromise in this way and cast these cufflinks in solid 925-fineness sterling silver. Weighing in at just under an ounce at 24 grams, these cufflinks contain more than twice the silver of the cufflinks of our competitors. Not only does this give the cufflinks a pleasing heft in your hand, but the solid construction also improves durability and helps the cufflink sit securely in your sleeve.
Hypoallergenic & Nickel-Free

Most gold or platinum plating today contains nickel, an allergen that prevents many men from wearing plated jewelry. At Fort Belvedere, we have taken the extra step to ensure that none of our metal goods contain nickel, so even if you have had issues with other jewelry makers, you can confidently wear Fort Belvedere jewelry without concern or risk.
