Victorian Gold Tiki Pineapple Cufflinks..........$85

Some say that she is the Queen of Fruits….others just say she’s rough on the outside and sour in the middle….. a bit like my mother in law……

When you have the opportunity to travel around the Hawaiian islands always look in those junk and antique stores on the highways….they are a treasure trove for the man with cufflinks on his mind.

No one in Hawaii knows what cufflinks are and you will scoop them up at a more than reasonable price for what is considerd a useless object in Hawaii!!!!!…..I haven't seen one long sleeve shirt in the many trips I’ve have been there.

Today I go to Captain James Cook’s side kick Sir Joseph Banks, who “discovered” the Bromelia on the Endevour expedition of 1768.



The dapper Sir Joseph Banks….links obscured!!!!

Antique “Steampunk” Gothic Victorian Gold Tiki Pineapple Cufflinks today matched with a treasured old Hermès neck tie adorned with Pineapples…..
