DO YOUR ITEMS HAVE A MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY?

Most items have a 1-year manufacturer’s warranty, but this does vary by brand. Please contact  support@oxandbull.com  if you would like more information.

WHAT WOULD YOU CONSIDER A STANDARD-SIZE OF CUFFLINK?

Most of the cufflinks we carry measure between ½” x ½” and 1” x 1”. There is no standard size for cufflinks as each pair is designed to be wholly unique.  The dimensions of each product are noted under the product description on the individual item page.

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES IN THE METALS THE CUFFLINKS ARE CONSTRUCTED OF? 

All our metal products are constructed of .925 sterling silver, palladium, stainless steel, titanium, or a plated base metal. We also offer items in 14k and 18k gold.

Sterling Silver is a soft metal, and ideal for engraving.  Sterling silver items will require polishing over time. Oxidization discoloration occurs when silver is exposed to oxygen and the best way to avoid it is by storing your  cufflinks  in a  jewelry storage case, or with routine maintenance using a soft polishing cloth. Wearing your cufflinks regularly will also help keep them from tarnishing as the fabric on your French Cuff shirt will keep them polished.

Palladium is a metallic alternative to platinum. It has been used interchangeably with platinum in precious metal jewelry since the 1930s. A strong and durable rare metal, palladium’s brilliance makes it ideal for plating cufflinks.

Stainless steel is a very strong metal that does not corrode or rust.  Its strength and resistance to damage is ideal for cufflinks and makes it an ideal material for engraving.

Titanium is the strongest metal we use. Resistant to corrosion, this silver-colored metal is hard-wearing and incredibly durable.

Plated items are constructed of a base combination of metals, and then plated with polished silver or rhodium. The exact composition of the core in base metal can vary.

HOW DO I KEEP MY SILVER JEWELRY FROM TARNISHING?

Unfortunately, tarnishing is a natural reaction that occurs when silver is exposed to oxygen. The best way to avoid tarnishing is to store your cufflinks in a storage box in a cool, dry place. We recommend using only a soft polishing cloth to polish your silver.

Visit our Care Instructions page for more information.

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES IN THE TYPES OF BACKINGS YOU OFFER?

We offer several different cufflinks backings, and here are our most common fixtures:

Bullet and Torpedo Backings are our most common backings. Easy to use, bullet and torpedo back closures utilize a simple swivel mechanism. Simply flip the backing vertically 90 degrees into the post and slip through your cuff. Once through the cuff, flip the backing back another 90 degrees to secure it in place.

Whale Back Closures will flip flat against the straight post for easy insertion into your cuff. Flip the tail back to secure the cufflink.

Fixed Backings typically feature a curved post and are constructed as one solid structure as the backing does not move. Since no parts move it can be a little more difficult to insert into the cuff, but it allows us to add unique designs and brand logos to the backing. The best way to affix these to your cuff is to maneuver the backing through the first part of the cuff, and then through the second part of the cuff. Once inserted, adjust the cufflink as necessary to ensure it is comfortable and secure. Sometimes fixed backings are reversible, leaving you multiple options for how to wear your pair.

Chains  are the classic cufflinks backing. A small chain joins the two faces of the cufflinks, giving the wearer multiple options on which face to display. This style can require a little more effort to put on (similar to the fixed backings) but they provide more comfort for those who prefer a looser cuff.

DO YOU HAVE TUXEDO STUD SETS AVAILABLE IN A SET OF 5? (BIG AND TALL)

Yes, we have a few select sets that come with 5 studs. However, all our stud sets are able to be purchased in sets of 5.

Please reach out to our customer service department (M-F 9AM-6PM EST) at 1- 877-503-2002 to order.

MY ORDER CONFIRMATION SAYS MY ITEM IS ON BACKORDER. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

If your confirmation email notes an item is backordered, it means we are currently out of stock on that particular item. One of our customer service agents will reach out to you (typically by the next business day) and will provide more information regarding the backorder.

You may see a "Credit Card Authorization" hold for the full amount in your bank account. Please note that you will only be charged for the items that are actually shipped.

DO I HAVE TO PAY SALES TAX ON MY ORDER?

Most likely, yes. Since the US Supreme Court decision in South Dakota vs. Wayfair, States are allowed to charge Sales Tax on online sales being shipped to that state. Many states have since enacted laws to collect that sales tax. We are lawfully following all regulations around sales tax and have begun to collect and remit sales tax whenever required by state law.
