Are Cufflinks A Good Gift? Here's Why He'll Love Bespoke Cufflinks

Finding that perfect jewellery gift for him, regardless of whether he’s your brother, father, colleague, friend, or significant other, is no easy feat. You’ll want to get him something special that he can use again and again, but ideally, nothing off-the-shelf that could come across as impersonal.

A question we are often asked here at Simon Wright Jewellery is ‘are cufflinks a good gift for a boyfriend or husband?’. We can confidently say that pair of bespoke cufflinks absolutely fit the bill, especially if they’re custom-made to suit the preferences and personality of the receiver.

Are Cufflinks A Good Gift?

While often thought of as a more corporate gift, custom cufflinks have come a long way and are a great way to surprise someone regardless of the occasion. They’re even a perfect Christmas gift, and nowadays many people also choose personalised cufflinks for wedding gifts. Here’s why.

Why Bespoke Cufflinks Make the Perfect Gift

They’re a one-of-a-kind gift
You can engrave cufflinks (they can be either hand or laser engraved), choose a colour (from rose gold to gold and silver cufflinks, everything’s possible), add a family crest or even precious stones like sapphires or rubies. The beautiful thing about bespoke cufflinks is that they’re completely one of a kind. Who wouldn’t love having something unique made for them?
Every stone has a story to tell
AAdding precious stones to a cufflink gift makes it even more special as each gem can represent something different. Rubies, for instance, are red, so ideal for that die-hard Arsenal fan. Emeralds are traditionally associated with Ireland.

Every stone also has a story to tell depending on where it came from. You can choose between mined diamonds, which take between one and three billion years to grow, and lab-grown diamonds, which tend to be a more sustainable and ethical choice. You can find out more about lab-grown diamonds in our recent blog article.
They’re an incredibly thoughtful gift
Spending the time to create personalised cufflinks is something incredibly thoughtful to do for someone else. It shows you know the person, and their personality, well enough to know what they like and will show the recipient just how much you care. Regardless of your customisations, it’s a gift that will touch whoever is lucky enough to have someone like you in their life.
They’ll stand the test of time
Well-made customised cufflinks made from precious metal and beautiful stones are a gift that will last. They also have the ability to grow in sentimental value and may even be handed down to the next generation as a family heirloom. They’re something you can rest assured will be treasured over time. And as a gift-giver, is there anything more comforting than knowing that?
