History

In the long history of art and culture of the enormous Chinese empire, jade has always had a very special significance, roughly comparable with that of gold and diamonds in the West. With its beauty and wide-ranging expressiveness, jade has held a special attraction to mankind for thousands of years. In prehistoric times it was esteemed for its toughness, which made it an ideal material for weapons and tools. Yet as early as 3000 B.C. jade was known in China as 'yu', the 'royal gem'.

Symbolic, jade combines energy with beauty, as well as the traditional and the modern in a harmonious way. In gemstone therapy it is said that jade "stimulates creativity and mental agility on the one hand, while having a balancing and harmonising effect at the same time".

How to preserve the beauty of a DDincs Cufflink over time?

DDincs Cufflinks are a perfect blend of charm, originality and stringent technical rigour. From the selection of gemstones and other materials to a special craftsmanship touch, a series of precise, harmonious gestures make every cufflink unique. They are made to wear every day and on every occasion. This is why they need no extraordinary maintenance, especially if they are delicately handled and cleaned.
Nonetheless, being precious objects, they deserve some simple, caring actions so that their beauty and splendour can be preserved over time.

  • Keep the cufflinks away from sharp, hard objects, harsh chemicals (perfumes, hairspray, chlorine), sunlight and extreme temperature. Keep them from falling onto hard surfaces. All of this can affect silver and gold and appearance of gems.
  • Do not wear the cufflinks when in the swimming pool, jacuzzi, sauna/steam room or while bathing or showering. Chlorine, detergents, oils & perfumes can all cause tarnishing & damage.
  • You can clean the cufflinks and remove tarnish with a soft cloth.
  • Thoroughly dry the cufflinks after exposure to water.

Silver

Our silver is a beautiful lustrous metal, used in making of finest contemporary jewellery. It does tarnish unfortunately.
Regular cleaning and smooth polishing will restore the original look of silver.


How to match a cufflink to your shirt (and tie)?

A few basics tips that will help you refine your approach to picking out some winning shirt, tie and cufflink combinations.

Combination 1: Solid-on-Solid
Let's touch on a classic combo: the solid shirt, tie and cufflink combo:

  • Use contrasting colour combinations.
    If you're wearing a foundation shirt like a solid white, light blue or pink, you can pretty much wear any colour cufflink you like. It's a great way to make your outfit pop with a bit more colour.
  • Use analogous colour combinations.
    Wearing a solid light blue shirt? Try it with a solid dark blue cufflink like the blue Sapphire or Lapiz Lazuli. Pink shirt? Go with a red, maroon or purple cufflink like Ruby or Amethyst. Just keep it in the family (colour wise). This is called 'minimalistic pairing' that symbolizes a certain level of sartorial sophistication.

Avoid wearing a light solid shirt with a light solid colour cufflink. Furthermore, never wear a tie that is the same exact colour as your shirt.

Combination 2: Solid-on-Pattern
Going with a solid-on-pattern requires a bit more thought than just matching solids. In fact, a solid colour cufflink on a patterned shirt is one of the easiest ways to work patterns into your outfit. The simple but key tip to pulling this off: match the colour of your cufflink to the colour family of one or more of the colours in your shirt pattern.

Above all, remember this: learn these as simple guidelines to form your own stylistic expression. Play around with different combinations and above all else, don't be afraid to discover and express something unique!

As Oscar Wilde once said, "You have to be yourself, everyone else is taken."
