Iguminov double ended cufflinks in silver. The Iguminov house in Moscow - exquisitely decorated with polychromatic tiles by a merchant called Iguminov - was covered in snow (when Cassandra went to visit and collect a friend's child from the lycee that was housed in the back of the French Embassy). While waiting, Cassandra dusted some snow off a window frame and uncovered a bosse that was carved with this pattern. She sketched it quickly with frozen fingers and once back in the workshop reworked the pattern into a necklace and bracelet link, and later into cufflinks. The design allows the crossed hatch pattern to be highly polished leaving the recesses matt so giving the design depth and sparkle. It has become one of Cassandra's classic signature designs. From the Journey to Russia.

Each cufflink measures approximately 14x9mm.
