Celebrating an Ode to the Tradition of Cufflinks

Cufflinks have emerged not only as affordable fashion accessories conveying your own personal style, but also as great gift items for almost all occasions, for men as well as ladies.

A glance into past is foundational to creating styles for the future. Men’s jewellery marks a new creative direction for many established and emerging designers. Their energies are harnessed in the products of their own ideas, now available in a myriad of forms.

A new sense of freedom emanates from each creative stroke of the artist pen, to flash finally with crystals and silver.

An ever expanding range of French cuffed shirts appear on the horizon giving men the variety they deserve. Any opportunity for decoration is worth its while.

After many years of repetitive styles the demand is relieved by wise enough retailers, well researched, keeping one eye on the weather. Just a quick browse in any upmarket department store will reveal more than a dozen brands offering fragrant grooming to taunt any man.

An all time favourite Hugo Boss splash on after shave. Just a small dose is enough to last the day, coupled with a subtle hand lotion to barrier against the harsh environment of air conditioned offices.

If you really want women to notice, then a little adornment won’t go astray. Polish your shoes, be a little extravagant in your choice of <a href="http://www.patrickmcmurray.com/xcart/home.php?cat=26">floral silk tie</a>, a freshly ironed shirt, a close shave, clean finger nails and you will be prepared for any occasion (in a red skirt)

In the midst of an urgent market, a wide variety of mechanisms for open and closing cufflinks appeared: the classic chain is replaced by the flip-hinge. Jewellers like Cartier and Tiffany crafted work of art cufflinks in mother of pearl, crystal; precious stones.

These famous fashion names establish cufflinks as the essential accessory for men.

The looking glass of our history, cufflinks espouse centuries through various designs: art deco at the end of 19th century, extravagant in the period 1940-1950, eccentric in 1960 with Hollywood stars and whimsical today.

Now as the dress down trend wanes, the dress up style is about to dominate as it has for centuries, broken by spasmodic fashion fluctuations, a testimony to style ever constant. The classics are always waiting in the wings.

Don’t balk at the cost of these little gems. The value captured in each piece will last a life time, ready to pass onto the next generation.

The flavour of the past decade in material choice is enamel.

Recommendations.

Simon Carter shirts are wisely packaged with a free set of cufflinks and collar stiffeners. Enough to entice customers back to include his ever expanding range into their collections.

Duchamp is experts in collating colour pattern and texture across the board from their luxurious shirts to their hallmark paisley ties and matching cufflinks.

Veritas design for the individual and for the corporate sector. Their unusual approach to product development has won them many awards. They have never moved too far from conservative classics.

Patrick McMurray; fusing enamels articulately is inspired by the brilliance of Pueblo Deco, Art Deco and the natural environment, which is captured and framed within geometric forms. The result is a small range of <a href="http://www.patrickmcmurray.com/xcart/home.php?cat=29">hand enameled cufflinks</a> that reek with individuality, a reflection of the designer himself.

It’s the independents that are outstripping more prominent names like, Oroton, Boss, and Gucci. Side by side, the later lack lustre and originality.

Creating individuality in design requires great attention to detail and a lot of time and effort. Many brands simply license their products to manufacturers or select from a narrow range of samples, so the essence is lost from the start and it becomes more obvious when on display in the high street.

So when browsing, choose wisely and by doing so the value of your purchase will be retained for a life time.

Tying the Knot - $14.99 Documentary filmmaker Jim de S?ve explores the many issues behind the controversial topic of gay marriage in Tying the Knot, a film which also offers a look at how the legal and societal structures of marriage have changed with time. Tying the Knot focus on two cases of long-term gay couples whose passing led to legal squabbles between the members of their respective families over issues which would have been comparatively clear-cut if the couples had been able to legally marry. In addition, de S?ve interviews activists on both sides of the issue of legally sanctioning same-sex unions, and looks backward at how changing laws regarding women's property rights and interracial marriage have created a precedent for rethinking the legal contract of marriage. Tying the Knot was screened at the 2004 Tribeca Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

No Material $22.99 Full performer name: Ginger Baker/Sonny Sharrock/Peter Brontzmann.Personnel includes: Ginger Baker (drums); Peter Brontzmann (bass saxophone); Sonny Sharrock; Nicky Skopelitis (guitars).Recorded live in Switzerland on March 28, 1987.Issued under Ginger Baker's name, the working title for this band was No Material, appropriate given the thrown-together nature of the group and the fact that their performances, all three of them, were totally improvised. They lasted less than a week, so this album is likely all that will ever be heard from this particular combination of players, but listeners can be glad to have it. Guitarist Nicky Skopelitis was the creative force and musical center of the band, forming the hub between the essentially rock-oriented leanings of Baker and bassist Jan Kazda and the explosively free tendencies of the Last Exit front line of Brotzmann and Sharrock. The rhythm team keeps the four lengthy pieces in a grooving zone, not dissimilar to Baker's own '80s recordings like Horses and Trees, albeit with high-energy soloing. The Skopelitis/Sharrock pairing is especially juicy, the former's melodicism contrasting wonderfully with the latter's "shards of glass" approach. Baker's heavy drum sound, largely unchanged since his days with Cream, fits in very well here; whereas it could occasionally seem plodding in a rock context, it serves as a deeply pitched anchor in a mostly free improv one. Compositional credit is given for each piece, though it appears that no more than a brief introductory line was sketched out; then the band was on there own. All of the pieces have a kind of bluesy jam feeling, with Skopelitis' "Oil of Tongue" coming closest to a rock sound and, not surprisingly, Brotzmann's closing number pushing the boundaries the furthest. The saxophone colossus from Wuppertal, Germany, is in stellar form throughout, negotiating the unusually (for him) rock-ish territory with aplomb and ferocity, with respect but absolutely no compromise; his fans would expect no less. A perfect album for listeners a bit overwhelmed by Last Exit, as well as those who found Baker's or Skopelitis' records well intentioned but a little on the timid side. Recommended. ~ Brian Olewnick

On the Material $18.14 Structured in three parts, "On the Material" is a meditation on language, geography, socio-economics and the body, moving from the glut of fossil-fuelled consumer excess to the materiality of a single book. Composed almost entirely of quatrains (each page being comprised of four four-line stanzas) and written while travelling through North America in 2008, "4 4" navigates issues of space and movement in the global age. As economies crumble, ecosystems fail and peak oil approaches, Collis records the production of a disarticulation of social discourse that our consumer society has generated: "After all we made money out of matter here / Now condos shield us from the computer hum / Of on-line trading and wars ?ash on ?at screens / As 4 4s cool and ping mud covered in double garages." In its bridging second section, "I Fought the Lyric and the Lyric Won," the desire to express wins out over the desire to possess. Beauty, contemplation and human communication seem to have abandoned the world, and their absence from the everyday has re-engaged the poet's struggle with language--has left a need to reinvent human discourse and its attendant relations. The third section, "Gail's Books," is a sequence of poems in memory of Stephen Collis's sister, Gail Tulloch. A month after Gail's death from cancer in 2002, a ?re destroyed her house, removing every material reminder of her from the earth. All that remained was one book recovered from a pool of water in the ruins after the ?re. Dried in the air, this book, and those Collis had previously borrowed from his sister, become a way for the poet to read back into the elemental heart of absence and loss--the "material" of the books displacing, and in some way recovering, how language holds the materiality of the physical world.
