Victorian Alling & Co. Coral Cufflinks with Chased Florals in 14k Gold

A fine pair of antique, bean-back cufflinks, modeled in 14k yellow gold, by the notable American jewelers Alling & Co., featuring a pair of natural, untreated, salmon-pink, coral cabochons. These large, oval, bezel-set corals are surrounded by ornate, hand-chased borders of plumes and lilies. The cufflinks' profile is somewhat convex, so that the coral gems sit above their floral "frames." These are marked for Alling & Co., and for 14k purity. They would be a lovely gift for a groom, and a wonderful compliment to any gentleman's business wardrobe. They look especially well with smart, patterned fabrics, and with colors on the blue spectrum. Materials 14k yellow gold Coral Age c. 1900 Measurements Measures approx 17 mm x 14 mm; coral cabs measure approx 12 x 9 mm.
