PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

For hundreds of years, The Four Vices have been depicted in a myriad of art forms. These cuff links represent Gary Taxali's re-imagination of the traditional gentleman's vices of women, liquor, cards, and horses. Taxali, whose artistic style is reminiscent of a bygone era, treats this subject matter in a cheeky and refreshing way, presenting the vices with a modern twist. As Taxali says, "Like a good vice, cuff links never go out of style."

"The Holy Grail for many collectors is a pair of The Four Vices, a popular theme of the early Edwardian period. Wine, women and gambling (cards and horses) are the vices depicted with Monopoly-style tokens. These were usually handmade by jewellers and a hallmarked pair in sterling silver can easily fetch $1500 today." - James Cockington, The Sydney Morning Herald."
