Specially commissioned by the V&A, these sophisticated enamel cufflinks celebrate the legacy of British architect and modern colour theory pioneer, Owen Jones.
The pattern on this pair is adapted from an intricate design dating from 1867 and held in the V&A archive.
The cufflinks are made of 22kt gold-plated brass with enamel decoration by skilled artisans in Jaipur, India.
Founded by sisters Nikita and Namita Bhandari, Azga fuses traditional Indian craftsmanship with contemporary design. Their jewellery showcases geometric and floral motifs, drawing inspiration from Mughal art and modern aesthetics to create distinctive, wearable art.

Owen Jones
Owen Jones (1809-74) was a versatile architect and designer and one of the most influential design theorists of the 19th century. Through his work at the 1851 Great Exhibition, he was also a key figure in the foundation of the Victoria and Albert Museum.
Two hundred years after his birth, Jones's theories on flat patterning and ornament continue to resonate. His bold theories on the use of colour geometry and abstraction formed the basis for Jones's seminal publication The Grammar of Ornament, a design sourcebook that is still in print today.
First published in 1856, this groundbreaking design manual gathered the finest examples of ornament from a variety of cultures and historical periods. Jones wished to liberate these examples of ornament from their original context and felt strongly that designers should not simply copy designs but instead try to understand the underlying principles held within them.
