1 9 7 S I M P LY A B U DH A B I THE QAJAR PRIDE CUFFLINKS T he beautiful colours and design of the Qajar Pride cufflinks feature Arabesque motifs, the complex ornamental decoration comprising geometrical elements inspired by architecture and certain tenets of Arabic script. For over 120 years (1794-1925) the Qajar dynasty dominated the Persian Empire and it was a golden era for arts and crafts. These cufflinks are dedicated to the higher standards of architecture and decoration reached under their kingdom in Iran and especially to the Panj Kāse – ‘five concaved’ design. These fancy multi-coloured gem-encrusted cufflinks have an ingenious hidden system of electricity which allows the changing colour and light to interact with the gemstones at different speeds. They will bestow a uniquely stylish and artistic touch to any ensemble.
