Some people collect historical artifacts to be reminded of sentimental moments in their past. Tokens & Icons collects them in order to repurpose them into elegantly crafted cufflinks and other functional gifts. If you love the past and remember it with nostalgia, then our collection of cufflinks by this amazing design house may be just what you’re looking for.

 

A Walk Down Memory Lane

Tokens & Icons was founded more than twenty years ago when they were licensed by the New York City Metro Transit Authority to create cufflinks featuring the iconic retired NY Subway tokens.  Before long other transit authorities, including those in Boston, Chicago, and San Francisco also approached them and asked them to create officially-licensed items with their retired tokens.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 




With that simple start, Tokens & Icons began its journey of acquiring authentic artifacts and featuring them in classic designs of functional gifts.  

 

“From authentic vintage typewriter keys to a Pan Am fuselage to Buffalo Nickels to watch movements from the early 20th century, Tokens & Icons aims to bring a new life and purpose to the memorable everyday objects of our past.”

 

Take Me Out to the Ball Game

In 2006, Tokens & Icons was acquired by BallPark Pens and entered the world of creating authentic sports artifacts.  A few years later, the design house was licensed by the MLB to become a producer of gifts made from Authenticated Game Used baseballs, uniforms, and broken bats.  

 

Since then they have become licensed by the National Hockey League, the PGA TOUR, and a growing list of top-ranked collegiate football and basketball programs. Because authenticity is so important, they work directly with licensors to obtain and document the chain of custody of each jersey, ball and helmet, thus ensuring that each fan’s purchase is 100% authentic.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A Bright Future

Tokens & Icons has continued to forge new relationships and acquire more artifacts. They have branched out in their acquisitions to celebrate a greater diversity of icons: from planes, trains and automobiles; to the sports you love to play and watch; to the tokens and coins that once circulated through millions of hands.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 




Because they value authenticity and craftsmanship so highly, they make sure their products are only crafted in a few locations  by highly-skilled artisans: Mexico, India, and the USA.  Together they are constantly working to bring authenticity, craftsmanship and functionality to the gifting experience.
