Are these cool or what?? My all time favorite cuffs.

I wear these EVERY time I go to my favorite bar: The Aku Aku Tiki Bar, which happen to be just 30 meters from my building. How convenient.

Of course, with the letter E as monogram, I had to have these babies. Very cool, amazing vintage stuff.

Swank Gold Tone Bamboo and Pearl Cuffs

cuffs 3

I don’t use these very much, even though they are really swell looking cuffs.

They just demand that special occasion. Like when I’m going for a game of poker with some Italian mobsters.

Men prefer Swank. Of course, we do.

Polish Glass Tile Cuffs

cuffs 6

These are rather cool.

From Poland, probably made during the communist era. The quality unfortunately corresponds to what you would expect from this era: they are very plasticy and flimsy. But still, kind of cool.
