Product Insights
Tateossian's Asanoha Mother-Of-Pearl Cuff Links (410 CAD, in stock) pair British luxury with a Japanese hemp-leaf motif symbolizing resilience and good fortune. Crafted from yellow gold-plated brass and rare yellow mother-of-pearl from gold-lipped oysters, the engraved Asanoha grid yields a warm golden-green iridescence that shifts with movement—though real-life color is warmer and more muted than photos. The brass casing protects the mother-of-pearl for regular wear but develops a unique patina over time, tailored to the wearer's body chemistry. A swivel-back closure ensures a flush fit, while subtle embossed logos and a layered designer box complete the understated design.
