BSK My Fair Lady Line Ladies
Cufflinks

If you are anything at all like we are,
you love the
BSK My Fair Lady pieces.

This company produced an entire line of highly collectable pieces based upon the 1956 Broadway musical, My Fair Lady. The musical was based upon George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion. The musical was made into a feature film in 1965, starring the beautiful Audrey Hepburn and Rex Harrison. It is thought that the jewelry was produced during the late 1950s.

These pieces are usually enameled and
most contain rhinestones. Many were adorned with flower designs. They made bracelets, necklaces, pins and to our delight, cufflinks like these.

They were most likely meant for the
ladies to wear; however, some men like showy jewelry and these links would fit
the bill.

Many ladies wore cufflinks through the
ages although you don't see this that much any more.

In a way, I wish the days when ladies
dressed to the nines would make a reappearance. When I look at images such as those above I can't help but think of all in one compacts with the chains, pill boxes and glamour, glamour glamour! A bygone era indeed!
