Title
Late Post medieval: Complete cufflink set
Description
English: A complete set of probably silvered tin alloy cufflinks, of Late Post Medieval dating (AD 1750 to AD 1800).

The cufflinks consists of a complete set (two elements joined by a link). The elements consist of a circular disc. The front has been decorated with a stylised flower (four large and four small petals, set evenly around a central cross hatched pistil). The reverse is plain and undecorated. The two elements are joined by a rectangular loop, made from circular sectioned tin alloy wire.

The cufflink set measures 28.0 mm in length. Each element has a diameter of 14.3 mm and are 5.4 mm thick. It weighs 3.2 g.

The cufflink set is a mid brown colour, with an even surface patina.

A similar set of cufflinks has been recorded on the PAS database as CAM-4B1E12 and has been dated to the Late Post Medieval period (AD 1750 to AD 1800).
