St. Patrick’s Day is coming up quickly, and with it comes images of shamrocks, pots of gold, and leprechauns. St. Patrick’s Day began as a religious feast day for the patron saint of Ireland and has become an international celebration of Irish culture with festivals, parades, dancing, special foods and a whole lot of green. And with all that excitement, pinching, and partying, the well-dressed man still wants to stay stylish.
The Serious Man
Not every man gets into the fun and silliness sometimes associated with St. Patrick’s Day. And, if you work in an office environment, it’s not always appropriate to be overt in your love of the Irish. A green suit isn’t exactly the pinnacle of fashion-forwardness. So, how can you subtly show your love of all things Irish (and keep from getting pinched)? Wear one of these classy pairs of cufflinks that highlights the green without being too flashy.

Where It All Began
David Donahue began in 1972 with the partnership of two men who decided to combine their names into their brand. Their goal was to offer the very best line of men’s accessories. To date, they have been extraordinarily successful in achieving their goal.
With an initial focus exclusively on men’s accessories, in the 70s and 80s the business grew and became known as one of the industry’s best accessories companies. With the advent of a new CEO in the late 1990s, David Donahue was soon became a successful brand of accessories in all of the finest retail stores. In face, in some locations, they were the exclusive retailer source for men’s formal accessories, offering cufflinks, stud sets, money clips, and key rings.
The Company Expands
In 2003, the new CEO began expanding the company’s offering to include formal furnishings: bow ties, cummerbunds, formal ties, and vests. This resulted in an overwhelmingly positive response from retailers, leading to high demand and the development of a collection of fine silk formal accessories. And when they launched their formal wear collection using fine Italian and English silks, it was an instant hit.
“WE ARE AMONG THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS AT DELIVERING ACCESSIBLE LUXURY TO DISCERNING CUSTOMERS.” – ROB DONOHUE
Always eager to keep retailers and their customers satisfied, David Donahue expands again to include neckwear, a formal shirt collection, and dress shirts. All were a huge success.

From .925 sterling silver cufflinks to 100% silk ties hand made in New York of the finest silks woven in Italy and England, the company is known for excellence at a great value. They call it “Accessible Luxury,” and they are among the best at delivering it.

BAADE II is a family-owned, artisan jewelry company that is known as a leading manufacturer of men’s jewelry accessories for the past 26 years. Started in 1988, in Atlantic City, BAADE II has been hailed by many connoisseurs as America’s very finest, artisan-crafted personal jewelry maker. Their cufflinks have been featured in magazines such as Executive Travel, Aficionado, Forbes Life, and GQ.
The Story Begins
The BAADE story began when Mary Ann Paul, after following her military husband around the world, finally opened her own shop in Georgetown specializing in estate jewelry. After receiving a degree in gemology, she became intrigued by the beauty of the many vitreous enameled pieces she sold and set out to learn the manufacturing process.
Burgundy Fleur Di Lis BAADE II Cufflink
After spending time in the UK learning the intricacies of crafting these beautiful pieces of jewelry, she started her own jewelry business, naming it BAADE. Twenty-six years later, her company still produces wearable art, with most of the vitreous enamel work continuing to be hand-crafted in the UK.
Avoiding a large range of “funky and novelty” jewelry, BAADE focuses on quality and classics that never go out of style – something that is different than what is usually found in larger department stores.
Despite the popularity of their products, BAADE remains a small company, and Mary Ann is very hands-on.
Vitreous Hand-Enameled Designs
Although BAADE has various styles to choose from, they are best known for their signature vitreous enameled cufflinks (this is not to be confused with the epoxy type “enamel” used by the majority of cufflink manufacturers today).
Sterling Tiled Enameled BAADE II CufflinksGold Octagon Enameled BAADE II CufflinksRaspberry Floral Enameled BAADE II Cufflinks
BAADE still uses old-fashioned tools and presses in the creation of their cufflinks, hand-crafting each one to ensure its quality and brilliance. From the beginning stages in the old-fashioned drop press, to the final stages of hand clipping and soldering, close attention is paid to every detail.
Once the cufflink has been prepared, it’s ready for the vitreous enameling process which uses heat to fuse powdered glass, infused with oxides and minerals, to the sterling silver designed cufflink plate. This method is sometimes called champleve or cloisonne, depending on the manner in which the enamel is applied.
The process of vitreous enameling goes back to ancient Egypt and produces a vibrantly rich kaleidoscope of colors that is near-legend in the unrivaled depth and intensity. Creating this beautiful look takes time and attention to detail.
“Vitreous enamels are meticulously handcrafted by layering, then hand-polishing, layer-after-layer of wafer-thin, molten glass, one atop another. Each added layer renders a quantum leap in color depth and intensity. Each layer is painstakingly made by first firing powdered glass to 850 degrees Celsius, or 2800 degrees Fahrenheit. …Once the molten lava has cooled to a wafer thin layer of colorfully transparent enameled glass, it’s fastidiously hand polished. Then, another molten layer is poured atop it. And again, diligently hand polished. Over-and-over, the process is repeated until the vibrantly rich depth and intensity of desired color is achieved.”
This process is repeated an average of six times per color as each layer is painstakingly applied and added to each cufflink plate. Then, to ensure a product that never tarnishes, each cufflink is electroplated with either rhodium (part of the platinum family of metals) or 18K gold. The result is a piece of prized jewelry, characterized by a brilliant, non-fading, vibrantly rich color.

It’s that time of year when we reflect back on the year that’s ending and look forward to the possibilities, hopes, and intentions for the new year ahead. Many people begin the process by setting goals or making resolutions. Often these include eating healthier, working out, stopping bad habits, and incorporating new habits. No matter what your resolutions include this year, dressing better should be on your list. There’s truth in the old saying: “Clothes make the man” (attributed to Shakespeare and Mark Twain). When you look good, you walk taller, with presence and power. So, here are some ways you can step up your game and step out a little more stylishly.
Choose Stylish Shoes
One things that is most often overlooked when reconsidering a wardrobe is the area of footwear. Yet, this is one of the first things that people (especially women) notice! Many times you are sized up by the fashion on your feet. If you’re sporting a pair of clean Converse shoes, you’re probably laid back and fun-loving. If you’re styling a pair of suede chukkas or a pair of leather double monk strap dress shoes, you’re most likely a man who appreciates classy, well-made footwear. Regardless, your footwear reflects your personality and style. So, what do your shoes say about you? If they’re not telling the world the story you want, then consider changing your shoes so they make the right statement.
Wear A Tailored Suit
On a casual day off, lounging at home with the family, or barbequing with friends, a nice pair of jeans and a relaxed button down with the sleeves rolled up is absolutely the way to go. But when you’re out-and-about, or heading to work, consider a slightly more elevated look. Few things make a man stand out the way a tailored suit does. Yes, you can certainly wear an off-the-rack suit, but it just doesn’t fit the way a tailored suit does. And the right fit is everything, and it speaks volumes about your confidence and authority!
Plus, a tailored suit offers you multiple options for wearing it. You can dress it up or down, add layers, or keep it simple.
“Putting on a beautifully designed suit elevates my spirit, extols my sense of self, and helps define me as a man to whom details matter.”
If the details matter, and if you like commanding attention, a tailored suit is the first step in the right direction.
Choose the Right Accessories
Accessories, when done well, can take a good outfit up a notch. Items like a classy watch or belt always make a statement, but often it’s the little things that really catch people’s eyes (especially the ladies’ eyes). Choosing the right tie pin, or wearing a pair of stylish cufflinks can really add a special touch. And, they can also help you to show off your personality a little bit, too. We can help you find the right pair with our huge selection, or you can call us at 1-866-4MY-CUFF for personalized assistance.
