• Gift-ready: Ideal for sommeliers, brewers, baristas and party-loving friends — even better with engraving.

Popular Drink Designs

• Champagne flutes: Elegant and wedding-ready in polished metal or subtle crystal detail.
• Wine glasses & bottles: Red/white enamel hints that stay refined in compact profiles.

Materials & Finishes That Work

• Sterling silver / rhodium tone: Timeless look that pairs with most tailoring.

• Enamel: Small, framed colour fills for wine, beer or cocktail details without looking loud.
• Onyx/MOP: Monochrome inlays to elevate black-tie looks.

How to Wear Drink Cufflinks (By Dress Code)

1. Black tie: Choose compact, mostly-metal designs (martini outlines, polished flutes) or monochrome inlays for formal elegance.
2. Business formal: Stick to silver or rhodium coffee cups or slim wine-glass icons; keep bold colour in the tie or pocket square.
3. Smart casual: Beer mugs or cocktail enamel designs pair well with blazers and open collars — ensure French (double) cuffs.

Wedding Day: A Toast, But Tasteful

Drink motifs can be ceremony-ready when scale and cohesion are considered:

• Groom vs party: Groom in gold-tone champagne flutes or engraved whisky tumblers; Best Man and Groomsmen in matching silver wine-glass or beer icons.
• Metal consistency: Keep everyone in one metal tone for cohesive group photos.
• Colour echo: Use a slim enamel accent to pick up the palette (burgundy, navy, forest) without overpowering the look.

FAQs

Are drink cufflinks appropriate for very formal events?

Yes — opt for compact, monochrome, metal-forward designs (flutes, martinis) to keep things elegant.

Can I include bright colours?

Use narrow framed enamel and keep ties/pocket squares neutral so the cufflinks remain the subtle accent.

What’s the safest, most versatile drink design?

A small polished champagne flute or martini outline — refined, readable and easy to pair with navy or black tailoring.
