The essence of our legal system!

These cufflinks were adapted from a ring now in the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum with a date of 1771.

The engraved saying, in Latin, translates to "Custom and Law" - the basis of our common law system.

The wearing of a ring of office began early in the Western World. Roman lawyers carefully exhibited their rings while pleading a case. A tradition began of giving lawyer rings upon admittance to the bar in England in the early 1400's.

These rings were simple bands often engraved with a verse referring to a legal ideal. Comes in gift box. Crafted in Sterling Silver.
