The Hellenic Temple Cufflinks are a pair of sterling silver cufflinks engraved with the facade of a classical Greek temple, the columned building type that defines Hellenic archite cture. Each link holds the row of columns and the even spacing between them. The design works by proportion rather than by ornament: the columns are evenly set and the scene is reduced to what can still be read at cuff size, which is why nothing is added around it. The temple front stands for order, balance and the intellectual heritage of antiquity, worn as a cultural motif rather than as a religious one. Show more
