Hallmark status
Below the 7.78 g exemption

A single article weighs 1.8 g, which is under the 7.78 g statutory exemption weight for silver. It is therefore lawfully sold unmarked, and we state that rather than implying a mark.

02  /  How it fastens

Separate stud

A two-part stud that passes through the placket hole of a dress shirt and is secured behind. Required for shirts with stud holes rather than buttons.

Shirt
Wing-collar dress shirt only

We state the mechanism and suggest checking the fastening each time you put the article on. We make no claim about how securely any mechanism holds.

03  /  Dress code

Dress codes vary by occasion and by host. These tiers are a common-practice reference, not a rule — where an invitation states something specific, follow the invitation.

06  /  About this article

Cultured mother-of-pearl set flush in sterling. White studs read quieter than black on a white shirt front and pick up warmth from candlelight.
