Vintage Costume – Capital Building Real Morpho Butterfly Wing Cufflinks
blissst on August 18, 2009 in Antique and Vintage Jewelry, Jewelry, Mens Club, Vintage Costume JewelryThe Capital Building with real morpho butterfly wings as background make these Rhodium plated cufflinks stand out. These vintage cufflinks are in excellent condition, they have never been used. These come on their original backing “Creations from Classics” I bought a collection of butterfly jewelry from the original vendor. The last time he took these out was for the NY world’s Fair in 1964. He sold and dealt with butterfly wing jewelry from the 40′s-the 60′s
American companies, Hoffman specifically started making morpho butterfly wing jewelry in the 30′s after it became popular in England in the 20′s.
The design on these cufflinks measures 1/2-in by 3/4-in. 1.27cm by 1.90cm I will slowly be listing the whole collection.
