Dimensions - Length x Width: 3.2 x 1.8 cm Weight: 14.00 grams Sterling silver cufflinks featuring The Most Excellent Order of the British Empire emblem serve as a distinguished symbol of recognition. Established in 1917 by King George V, the Order honours individuals for their outstanding contributions to the arts, sciences, charitable endeavours, and public service beyond the civil sector. With five classes across civil and military divisions, the Order's highest ranks confer knighthood upon men and damehood upon women. Originally, nominations came from the United Kingdom, its Dominions, and the Viceroy of India, but today, Commonwealth countries continue to recommend candidates. While many Commonwealth nations have developed their honours, the Order of the British Empire remains a prestigious acknowledgment of exceptional merit and service.
