We actually have Link, Cuff under "Clothing-Accessory," since it
Chenhall's is based on function. Cuff links actually serve a useful
purpose. The decorative feature is quite often secondary.

Subject: Nomenclature Question

 

 Hi All,

I am trying to catalog a cuff link, but Chenhall's doesn't list cuff
links anywhere. I was thinking it would fall under Adornment. Is there a
related term to use? How would you catalog it?

 

Thanks Much,

Toni Kiser
