Description

DeepL Translate

These elegant enamel cufflinks have been inspired by the mosaic which surrounds the High Altar in Westminster Abbey.
The cufflinks are gold plated and the design has been hand enamelled. They are set with clear stones to the centre to add to their opulent appearance. They have been made exclusively for the Abbey and are gift boxed with a story card.
The present altar and screen were erected between 1867 and 1873 after George Gilbert Scott’s design. The sculpted figures on the screen (Moses, St Peter, St Paul and King David) are by H.H. Armistead. Behind the altar is a mosaic of the Last Supper designed by J.R. Clayton and carried out by Antonio Salviati. The inscription along the top of the screen reads "The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord and of his Christ" (from the book of Revelation).
