Vintage Sterling Silver and Gold-Tone Beaded Shrimp Cufflinks

This pair of cufflinks features a classic 'shrimp' or ribbed dome design, characterized by prominent horizontal graduating segments that create a scalloped profile. The primary material appears to be sterling silver, currently exhibiting a substantial amount of tarnish and oxidized patina in the recessed grooves, which enhances the dimensional contrast of the piece. Each cufflink is bordered by a vertical row of gold-tone or brass beaded accents, providing a mixed-metal aesthetic indicative of high-end fashion jewelry from the late 20th century. The construction shows a high level of craftsmanship with deep casting and polished elevated ridges. While the resolution limits the view of specific hallmarks, the style suggests a designer influence, possibly from the 1980s or 1990s. The condition is fair to good, with visible surface oxidation and minor micro-scratches consistent with regular wear. There are no signs of catastrophic metal fatigue or missing beads, though a professional cleaning would be required to restore the original luster of the silver surfaces.
