Soviet 875 Silver Swirl Cufflinks with Crystal Stone – Hallmarked USSR Pair

Rare Soviet Silver — Stamped, Authenticated, and Timelessly Elegant

There is something deeply compelling about slipping on a pair of cufflinks that once adorned the cuffs of a Soviet-era gentleman — crafted from real silver, bearing the official state hallmark, and designed with a sophistication that transcends its era. These remarkable cufflinks are a genuine piece of Soviet jewelry history, ready to be worn or displayed with pride.

Each cufflink features a swirling concentric ring design in warm oxidized silver, centering on a brilliant faceted round stone — likely crystal glass or cubic zirconia — set in a fine milgrain-edged bezel. The interplay of the dark recessed grooves against the polished raised rings creates a mesmerizing, almost hypnotic visual effect. The toggle-bar fastener on the reverse is sturdy and functional, finished with an oval plate stamped with the maker’s mark.

Hallmarks — What the Stamps Tell Us

• 875 with Soviet five-pointed star → Confirms 875/1000 silver (87.5% pure silver) — the standard Soviet silver grade, regulated by the state
• PCI maker’s mark → Soviet state assay office production code, indicating official manufacture and quality control

These hallmarks make this piece fully verifiable as authentic Soviet-era silver jewelry — not silver-plated, not reproduction.
