This original Art Deco Krementz stud set dates to the 1920s–30s. It features iridescent abalone framed in gold-overlay bezels. The colours shift from soft pink to green, which gives every piece a gentle glow. This complete set was made for formalwear and still works beautifully for black-tie events today.

Design & craftsmanship

Krementz was an American jewellery firm based in Newark, New Jersey. The company built its reputation on its durable gold-overlay technique, and its men’s accessories became known for quality and style. During the Art Deco period, Krementz created dress sets that combined clean geometry with precise engineering, and this set shows that signature approach.

The circular abalone panels sit within stepped Deco borders that highlight the natural colour play. The reverse of the cufflinks carries the Krementz mark, and the sturdy gold-filled connectors show the strong build typical of the brand. This Krementz stud set includes double-sided cufflinks, four matching shirt studs, and three smaller collar studs in the same cohesive design. The original case holds each piece securely and adds even more charm.

Why we love this set

We love the balance between bold Art Deco lines and the soft shimmer of abalone. The colours feel subtle yet distinctive, and the complete, boxed set makes this a rare find for collectors. It also carries the unmistakable quality that Krementz produced throughout the early 20th century.

Styling ideas

You can pair this set with a tuxedo shirt for weddings or evening events. The abalone tones work well with both black and white tailoring, so the set always adds quiet sophistication. It also makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who enjoys vintage menswear or Deco design.
