Duchamp cufflinks - British craftsmanship at its best - video

Over the weekend I heard from photographer & style blogger, Jonathan Daniel Pryce, who had just returned from Kent, where he had gone to meet Duchamp London's cufflink craftsman. 

Although I know that they use British products where they can, I was surprised and delighted to hear that Duchamp's cufflinks are made in the UK. We tend to assume that such pieces are imported for all but the very exclusive end of the market.


Jonathan kindly sent me photos of his visit, during which he watched Duchamp's jeweller create each piece by hand in his small studio. He photographed the process from beginning to end and spoke to the craftsman, capturing the interview on video (below).

Here are some of Jonathan's images and the finished products. See Duchamp's website here for more information about these lovely British-made pieces.

I've talked about Duchamp before here on the blog. Their classic, with a colourful twist, designs are ideal for the man looking for something different. The quality of the cut and fabrics is very high.
