Many businesses and corporations use corporate gifts for many reasons. They could be part of a recognition award for outstanding service to the company. They could also be campaign marketing materials used to promote a new line of products and to drum up new business. These gifts are typically very nice and include screen-printing, embroidery, and laser etching and engraving to make the items more meaningful and personalized. For example, the laser engraving process has become very popular among jewelers, because they can make an engraving with great precision. The engraving machines can engrave the inside of a ring, the back of a watch, or the surface of a pair of designer cufflinks.

Cufflinks are usually associated with men’s fashion, but women wear them too. They fasten the cuffs together on a blouse or dress as well as men’s shirts. In the 16th century ruffled wristbands were common on shirts, and they tied together with cuff strings. Shirt sleeves evolved during the reign of the French king Louis XIV (1643 – 1715) when they started to use sleeve buttons. These are usually colored glass buttons connected with a short chain. These simple glass buttons eventually became jeweled studs of diamonds with gold link fasteners. Interestingly cufflinks pre-date buttons, zippers, and safety pins. They are typically worn on dress shirts with French or Double cuffs. Many believe they should never be worn without a jacket.
Engraved and personalized cufflinks make a treasured gift that will be worn for years. They add a certain style to an ensemble that is prestigious and distinguished. If you are rising through the ranks in hopes of becoming a corporate leader, dressing the part with you specialty cufflinks will definitely help you on your way!
