The Perfect Cheap Metal Cuff links

Banana Republic Gunmetal Knot Cuff links – $39.00

Almost all inexpensive metal cuff links are super shiny.  High chrome, usually large in size, and anything but subtle.  These are the exact opposite, and if you catch a sale they’re an absolute steal.

The reviews online mention that they are much darker in person, and that’s accurate (see below).  They’re closer to black than silver.  That’s also a good thing.

Silver plated brass and a simple shape made up of two grooved loops.  They’re not a matte finish, but they won’t blind anyone either.  Easily the best looking cheap cuff links this side of silk knots.

Cufflinks:  BR Gunmetal Knots – $39.00
