About The Roots Cufflinks

Ang The Roots ay isang pares ng cufflinks na dinisenyo para sa pang-araw-araw na paggamit at para sa mga panlipunang okasyon. Ang mga cufflinks ay gawa sa 14 karat white gold at pinalamutian ng princess cut blue sapphire na 0.36 carats. Bawat piraso ay may sukat na humigit-kumulang 15 by 15 milimetro at tumitimbang ng 8.40 gramo. Ang parisukat na hugis ay taglay ang tradisyunal na palamuti na inspirasyon mula sa mga karpet na hinabi ng mga kababaihan sa rehiyon ng Balkans. Ang mga ibabaw ay pinakintab, sand blasted, binalutan ng dekorasyong tina o pinahiran ng black rhodium. Ang layunin ay pagsamahin ang minanang palamuti sa isang simpleng modernong hugis.
