Hayden W. Wheeler was a maker of fine cufflinks and other jewels from about 1850 to the early 1930s.The maker’s mark of the firm (a large “W” enclosing a smaller “H” and “W”) is stamped along the gold cross piece raised above the diamonds (see photo 3).The purity of the gold is indicated by the “14” and “K” flanking the maker’s mark (see photo 4).
In the late Victorian era jewelry and cufflink makers often found inspiration in the Islamic art and architecture of medieval Spain, North Africa and the Middle East.These cufflinks with their intricate, finely rendered arabesques are a wonderful example
