Ok...
First... they are not silver...
Second they are not "buttons"...

They are cufflinks... that have been through heck and back.
Here is what they SHOULD look like

Can you please take a picture of the back to verify my opinion on these ?

They could have been part of a set... in other words... not cufflinks... but "clip ons".

 

[Backwoodsbob]

AARC, those are nice. Can you tell me where are they from? Time period and maybe what society

First they are not cufflinks, I know what cufflinks are...they have shank backs..as a button does

 

[CaliBlueGirl]

And second they are silver, I took them to a jeweler. But thanks for the correction attempts and finally uniting me with something similar

 

[CaliBlueGirl]

Thank you nope, nothing on the back, just the shank / hole

 

[CaliBlueGirl]

They are so fascination to me lol...if only history could speak

 

[CaliBlueGirl]

I'm hunting info on them...only thing in my collection that im stumped on

 

[ARC]

Well then...
I stand corrected.

The only examples that I found of these are the ones pictured .

For the record... Prior to the 1930's (give or take a decade), the cuffs of a mans dress shirt were held together by two small buttons with a link or a short chain between them. That's why they are called cufflinks.



This is a picture of the backs of early 20th C cufflinks.
