Riker Bros Heavy 18k Gold Shriners Masonic Cufflinks
Regular price
$1,044.00
Presented is a handsome, heavy weight pair of 18K gold and platinum enameled cufflinks made by Riker Brothers of Newark, New Jersey. The cufflinks are topped with the traditional Masonic or Shriners scimitar, crescent moon and star. The crescents are nicely enameled. The scimitar on each cufflink is done in platinum.
The cufflinks are stamped with the maker’s mark for Riker Brothers and 18K. We have tested them with nitric acid and guarantee them to be 18K gold. We have also tested the scimitar and guarantee it to be platinum.
One of the cufflinks has two tiny chips to the enameling, one on either side of the crescent. Otherwise, the condition is excellent. There are no other chips, no cracks, no splits, no breaks, and no repairs.
The cufflinks have 3/4 inch between the tops and the bottoms, plenty of room to accommodate virtually any shirt.
The tops of the cufflinks measure 3/8 inch by 5/8 inch.
The weight is 11.9 grams.
