Growing up,  we watched a ton of movies that had Asians roles portraited by many many actors througb the years.

We acquired these Menuki Cufflinks that were custom made for someone who was in the film acting industry.

The Menuki pieces were set on 14K Gold Cufflink Mounts.

The Menuki pieces were finished with a gold overlay for visual appearances.

So what are Menuki?

The menuki are ornaments on the tsuka (generally under the tsuka-ito); to fit into the palm for grip.

Menuki was wrapped in the sword hilt normally to cover the peg in the hilt and for grips.

These particular Cufflinks have the Immortals as the Design work.

The Cufflinks are a special Asian set and gift made for that special someone.
