Description
Presidential seal cufflinks complete your look with patriotic pride and a bit of history, too. Crafted with blue enamel and gold plate, this pair evokes the design created by a committee of members of The Continental Congress on July 4, 1776, just a few hours after they adopted the Declaration of Independence. The committee members'Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, and John Adams'prepared a very complicated design that was promptly tabled by Congress, except for one enduring feature'the motto E Pluribus Unum, "Out of Many, One."
