These 2020 limited-edition Zodiac Cufflinks are no longer available for purchase.

To celebrate the start of a new decade, we present our limited edition Rat Cufflinks and share the story of how this remarkable character managed to secure his place on the Chinese Zodiac…

Long, long ago, the jade emperor invited all animals to compete in a race with the purpose of selecting 12 animals to be his personal guards. The emperor sent an immortal messenger into the land of men with the message that those that finished through the heavenly gates first would be rewarded with the highest rank.

On the morning of the race, the rat came across a swollen river with a strong current. Unable to swim through the current, he was forced to wait.

Soon the ox appeared and the clever rat quickly climbed up the ox’s leg and onto his ear. The ox was unaware of the rat's presence. After crossing the river, the ox saw the palace of the jade emperor and charged towards the heavenly gates.

As the ox was about to cross the finishing line, the rat suddenly jumped down from his head and entered the gates ahead of him.

Our rat cufflinks in sterling silver are a perfect representation of this quick-witted character. Crafted in minute detail, these rats hold a shiny seed of silver corn.

A limited edition of 100 pairs.

It all began when Patrick created a pair of earrings for his wife Catja, who wore them to the hair salon, where her hairdresser saw them and requested that a pair be made for her. Soon afterwards, all the other ladies who went to the salon were asking for similar earrings and from this gift of love, our journey as Africa’s luxury house began.

Patrick and Catja have injected their style and creativity into the magical environment of their home and studio in the sanctuary of the Umwimsi Valley where they brought up their four sons.

From day one, the boys grew up immersed in the creative surroundings of their father’s studio. Alexander, Forbes, Patrick Jnr and Benjamin infused the house of Mavros with their enthusiasm, creativity and passion with a serious pinch of fun...

Marrying intricate craftsmanship with an intrepid family heritage, every piece that we make has been designed by a member of the family with the sole intention of bringing delight and showcasing the very best of African luxury.

Love pervades everything connected with our business, from the design and production of our works of art to the care and attention given to serving our customers and friends and, of course, our love of Africa.
