Globe Cufflinks for the Groom Who Loves to Travel

By Stephanie Chase , last updated June 24, 2011

For the globetrotting groom, a set of globe cufflinks is a unique, sophisticated accent that speaks to the husband-to-be’s love for travelling. The cufflink, used to fasten the two sides of the groom’s cuff, is one of the few places in typical men’s wedding dress that allows for flair and pizzazz. Grooms can use the decorative studs to show off their world-travelling personalities.

Less Expensive Globes

Cufflinks House sells fun spinning globe cufflinks. A miniature, hand painted blue enamel plant earth spins on a silver or gold axis. These are available for $89.00 for a set of gold cufflinks or $49.99 for a set of silver cufflinks. Cuff-Daddy sells flat faced silver planet earth cufflinks. These are not painted, but straight silver for a more muted look, and the flat face is a sleeker than the spinning globe. These sell for $39.99.

Etsy.com also has a variety of globe and earth cufflinks available. Etsy is an online marketplace for small business and individual artists to showcase their work and their collections. Here, you can find antique, vintage, or handmade creations, such as handmade silver globes, resin photographic images of planet earth set in silver, or vintage gold globe cufflinks. Prices range from $11.95 to $240.00.

Fine Jewelry Globes

The London-based jewelry designer Tateossian makes a sterling silver cufflink set that holds a rotating globe colored with an inlay of gold-plating, lapis lazuli, and other semi-precious stones, $375.00. Tateossian also makes a rotating silver skeleton globe cufflink set that holds a delicate cut-out earth, $325.00.

Tiffany & Co. made sterling silver set of globe cufflinks, although they are not currently in production. The small, shimmering silver globes, 8.5 millimeters in diameter, are understated and classic. While you will not be able to purchase these directly from Tiffany’s & Co., these beautiful cufflinks can be found on websites such as eBay.com and bestwonderful.com.
