  • Heritage Cuff links That Demonstrate Your Pride

    Heritage Cuff links That Demonstrate Your Pride     When you choose to wear Cuff links with your suit and tie you are on the right road to impress people and make a certain statement about yourself. In this day and age, just by wearing a suit and tie and Cuff links you will stand out from the crowd, but you want to stand out for all the right reasons, not the wrong ones!   We strongly believe in our heritage and our country of birth, and we believe that many other people do as well. For precisely this reason, we produce a range of heritage Cuff links that symbolise your country of birth, whichever of the four in the UK that you belong to. We also have designs for America, Canada, Spain, France, and even the SPQR design if you happen to hail from Rome!   We produce a series of designs for the English, including the Three Lions, the English Rose, the English Lion, and so on. There are Cuff links that celebrate our Royal Family such as the Crown (in gold on red background), and there is the St. George and the Dragon Cuff link.   Shamrock Cuff links For The Irish For the Irish we have the Shamrock Cuff link. This is depicted in white and gold on a blue or green background. The Shamrock is the young sprig of clover that has associations with St Patrick who used it as a metaphor for the Christian trinity, and it is mentioned in early Celtic literature. It was also an emblem of Ireland from the 18th century onwards during the long struggle for independence.   If you hail from north of the border, we have the Scottish Lion for you. This depicts the Scottish Lion Rampant in silver on dark blue, and was on the Royal Banner of Scotland dating back to William 1 in the 12th century.   We haven’t forgotten you if you are Welsh, either. The Welsh Dragon Cuff links show the dragon standing proudly in gold on a red background with the right front paw raised. It was the battle standard of King Arthur, and in 1953 it became a Royal Badge and was added to the arms of Cardiff, the capital of the country. The Welsh Dragon Cuff links symbolise the pride and tradition of the Celts.   Those are just a sample of the range of heritage Cuff links that we produce at Kang Jin Cufflinks Company. There are many more.  [View Details]
  • Cuff-links Can Work In A Variety Of Ways

    Cuff-links Can Work In A Variety Of Ways   Cuff-links come in a range of different designs, and we are not just talking about the patterns on the front face, but the way in which the Cufflinks work.   The most common style is the bullet back. This has the front face with the pattern or design on it which is fixed to a post which is the part that goes through the holes in the cuff. At the other end of the post is the toggle in the shape of a bullet which turns through 90°. You turn the toggle parallel to the post to push it through the cuff, and then turn it back so that it locks the link into place.   Another design is the whaleback Cufflink which has a toggle in the shape of a whale’s tail. This works in the same way as the bullet back does.   Then there are stud, or button style, Cufflinks which have a fixed post and a fixed stud or button at the other end. These are more difficult to push through the holes in the cuff, of course. Chain link Cufflinks usually have two identical faces which are held together by a chain instead of a post.   Ball Return Cufflinks Ball return Cufflinks have a curved post and at the end opposite the face is a smaller ball which has to be pushed through the holes. A more contemporary design is the dual action Cufflink in which both the face and the toggle move against the post. You can also get silk knot Cufflinks made of silk, obviously, with a knot at each end. Again, more difficult to insert, but very cheap to buy and available in a range of colours.   At Wimbledon Cufflink Company, our Cufflinks are very similar to the bullet back design, but the toggle is a slightly curved oval shape.   We have a very large choice of designs on the face, many of which are in our heritage range such as the English Rose Cufflinks. This was also known as the Tudor Rose because Henry VIII used it to represent peace following the Wars of the Roses, which lasted for one hundred years between the House of Lancaster and the House of York. The English Rose today is the emblem of, among others, the English Rugby Team. We present the Rose in gold on a bright blue background.      We also produce heritage Cufflinks in other patterns for England, as well as designs for Scotland, Ireland, and Wales.  [View Details]

  • The Olympic Sport Pin Trading

    The Olympic Sport Pin Trading   As Olympic fever takes hold over fans across the globe, there is an Olympic sport of sorts rarely, if ever, making headlines. This sport doesn't involve the athletes, though; rather, this competition takes place by fans attending the games.    It's Olympic Pin trading, and collectors work almost as hard as the athletes themselves.   Don Bigsby is president of the world's largest Olympic collectors club. The IOC-recognized Olympin has 500 members to date, and spans more than 30 nations.   "We're certainly nothing compared to the athletes, but our mentality probably is very close," Bigsby told "Sunday Morning" producer Roman Feeser. "I can remember back in the '80s – collecting was advertised as the twenty-seventh sport of the Games, because at that time there were twenty-six different sports. So, we thought that was kind of cool, that we were part of the Olympics! But we're certainly not athletes."     Los Angeles native Pam Litz, who sits on the board at Olympin, said the club and website are a great way to bring fans of Olympic Pin collecting together. "You know, we're collectors and we want to have a way to connect," she said.   We know what you're thinking: Pins? Really?  But this is a serious tradition, one Feeser learned about firsthand having worked many Olympics at USA House, a gathering place at Olympic sites for athletes, family members, sponsors and guests.   Pin collecting is believed to have begun as far back as 1896 at the Games in Athens, Greece. The Pins were cardboard, and were used to identify athletes, officials and media. It is thought that some fans began to collect these pins, and thus a new kind of sport was born.   Litz has been an avid collector since 1984, when the Summer Games were in Los Angeles: "I was a volunteer. I saw these groups of people kind of huddled together. I kind of poked my nose in there [and] asked, 'What are they doing over there?' Someone said, 'Oh, they are trading pins! It's a big deal!' So, I went and stood in line, invested my $20 for four pins, and then put them on, and I thought, 'Now what I do?'"   That's when the games begin!   What you do is start looking for the best and most desired Pins out there – and there are a lot to pursue.   There are Sponsor Pins; National Committee Pins; Media Pins; pins from organization committees vying to host future games; Security Pins; and Commemorative Pins.     For collectors, getting the gold could mean a rare or hard-to-find pin. For others, there's a financial incentive.   Don Bigsby recalls going to his first pin show in 1980: "I went to a ski show, and there was a man there selling pins. And he had his from Lake Placid 1980, some of the same ones I did. And he had prices on them, like $60, $80, $30. Whoa! I mean, I'm not in this for the money, but I didn't realize these things are so valuable."   Of course, Trading Pins during a pandemic hasn't been easy. Both the Tokyo Games and now Beijing have been hard on collectors, but it hasn't stopped them.    "There's nothing like being at the Games," said Bigsby. "Even to be trading by mail or the internet at home, it doesn't come close to comparing. It's the atmosphere at the games, being out in the street with hundreds of thousands of people from 200 countries.   "It's an education. I've learned things that wouldn't have interested me at all when I was in school, and now I learn it because it's part of doing the hunt," he said. [View Details]

History of Enamel Pins The history of Enamel Pins dates to 1800 BC, about 3800 years ago in Egypt. Though not the inventors of Enamel Pins, they were the pioneers of the process that led to what Enamel Pins look like today. It was a common practice among the Egyptian artisans to solder small wire pieces for creating decorative filigree artworks. This formed the base for the separation between colors in the modern pins. It was about 600 years later that the Greeks took over the process by filling the empty spaces of filigree with powdered glass. Enamel inlay was created by firing the artwork. This art of enameling was furthered by the Chinese who used this process for creating decorative jewelry, vases, items and the first Enamel Pins. It was during the Civil War that Enamel Pins took a life of their own. Soldiers started wearing pins emblazoned with unit names and numbers to stay organized recognizable. The pins were continued to be worn by veterans, even after the war was over, to showcase their patriotism and togetherness. It was in 2014 that the pin revival really took off. Celebrities started endorsing them and people started to snatch them up. Independent artists created their own designs which were lapped up on social media platforms.

  • Bing Dwen Dwen and Shuey Rhon Rhon

    Bing Dwen Dwen and Shuey Rhon Rhon   Bing Dwen Dwen (Chinese: 冰墩墩; pinyin: BÄ«ng DÅ«n DÅ«n) is the official mascot of the 2022 Winter Olympics, and Shuey Rhon Rhon (Chinese: 雪容融; pinyin: XuÄ› Róng Róng) is the official mascot of the 2022 Winter Paralympics. The name of Bing Dwen Dwen possibly means ice hulu, as 墩 (DÅ«n) in its name is a homophone of 礅 (DÅ«n) in the word 糖礅 in Tianjin dialect, meaning tanghulu, the prototype of the mascot. Both events are scheduled to be held in Beijing, the capital of China.      History   Two mascots painted on an Air China Boeing 737-800 The mascot design competition was launched on 8 August 2018. A total of 5,816 designs were submitted for further review and ten were shortlisted. The mascots were unveiled on 17 September 2019. Bing Dwen Dwen and Shuey Rhon Rhon were selected over eight other designs.   During the Olympic games, medalists were given a stuffed version of Bing Dwen Dwen at a ceremony immediately after the conclusion of their event, while medals were awarded at a later ceremony combining winners from multiple events.   Characteristics Bing Dwen Dwen is a giant panda with a suit of ice, a heart of gold and a love of winter sports. "Bing" means ice and embodies purity and strength, the characteristics of the Winter Olympics. "Dwen Dwen", which means health, liveliness and cuteness, conforms to the overall image of pandas and symbolizes the strength, tenacity and inspiring Olympic spirit of Winter Olympic athletes. The colorful ring around Bing Dwen Dwen's face is inspired by the "ice ribbon" of the national speed skating hall of the Beijing Winter Olympics. The heart on Bing Dwen Dwen's palm is a warm welcome to friends all over the world.[7] Bing Dwen Dwen's full-body "shell", which helps the panda to skate, snowboard and ski alongside the Olympic athletes, is a tribute to embracing new technologies for a future with infinite possibilities, the bright colours of the halo around its face are a representation of the latest advanced technologies of the ice and snow sport tracks at the Games, while the heart on its left palm symbolises China's hospitality for athletes and spectators at the Winter Olympics.[8] Some netizens believe Bing Dwen Dwen's design may have also been inspired by the traditional Chinese winter treat tanghulu (糖葫芦) as the suit of ice resembles the clear candy coating.   Shuey Rhon Rhon is an anthropomorphic Chinese lantern. Lanterns represent harvest, celebration, warmth and light. The wishful shape at the top symbolizes auspicious happiness. The continuous pattern of the dove of peace and the Temple of Heaven symbolize the peaceful friendship and highlights the characteristics of the place where the events are held. The decorative pattern incorporates the traditional Chinese paper-cutting art. The snow on the face represents the meaning of "a fall of seasonable snow gives promise of a fruitful year" (瑞雪兆丰年). It also reflects the anthropomorphic design and highlights the mascot's cuteness. Bing Dwen Dwen was designed by Cao Xue (曹雪), a chief designer at Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts, while Shuey Rhon Rhon was designed by Jiang Yufan (姜玉凡), an undergraduate majoring in product design at the Jilin Art Institute of Design.     Bing Dwen Dwen is the main Olympic mascot. Shuey Rhon Rhon is the Paralympic mascot.   Reception Stuffed versions of Bing Dwen Dwen have become a very popular souvenir, with stores regularly selling out and people lining up for hours outside stores, sometimes overnight, to purchase them.

  • Beijing 2022 Mascot

    Beijing 2022 Mascot     Bing Dwen Dwen In Mandarin Chinese (the official dialect of China), "Bing" has several meanings, though the most common is ice. The word also symbolises purity and strength, while “Dwen Dwen” means robust and lively, and also represents children.   The new Olympic mascot will serve as an ambassador for winter sports, bringing joy to those who participate in and watch the Olympic Winter Games. “Bing” means ice and also symbolises purity and strength, and “Dwen Dwen” represents children. The mascot embodies the strength and willpower of athletes and will help to promote the Olympic spirit.     Description Bing Dwen Dwen wears a full-body “shell” made out of ice, which resembles an astronaut suit - a tribute to embracing new technologies for a future with infinite possibilities. The shell also helps the panda to skate, snowboard and ski alongside the Olympic athletes.   The bright colours of the halo around its face are a representation of the latest advanced technologies of the ice and snow sport tracks at the Games, while the heart on its left palm symbolises China's hospitality for athletes and spectators at the Winter Olympics.   Creator: Cao Xue   Did you know? The design for Bing Dwen Dwen was chosen from over 5,800 submissions from China and 35 countries around the world as part of a global competition arranged by the Beijing 2022 Organising Committee. The designs were reviewed by Chinese and international experts, with the final selections made by teams from the Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts and Jilin University of the Arts. The selection of an animated panda for Beijing 2022's official mascot is not too surprising, as the giant panda is the national animal of China - not to mention that a panda was one of the five Fuwa mascots of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.   [View Details]
  • What's its Gold Medal secret?

    Norway is dominating the Winter Olympics. What's its Gold Medal secret?     BEIJING — When Tore Ovrebo, head of Norway's vaunted national athlete development program known as Olympia toppen, arrived in Beijing, he predicted exactly how many Medals his country would win.   "The Medal aim is 32 — three, two," Ovrebo said at a press conference, making the number crystal clear for anyone not listening closely.   That is an astonishingly high bar, sort of like a Major League Baseball manager promising his pitcher will throw a no-hitter.   Ovrebo proceeded to map out his game plan, predicting Norway would Medal repeatedly in three core disciplines: alpine skiing, biathlon and cross-country skiing.     With the Winter Olympics entering the final days of competition, his country's athletes are actually well ahead of schedule. The U.S. with its vastly larger population lags by half a dozen Medals.   Norway's athletes are outpacing the U.S. even though its team is less than half the size, with 99 Norwegians competing in Beijing compared to 223 Americans.   So how does a nation with so few people do it? The Norwegians have been asked this a lot in Beijing.     "It's a good question," said Birk Ruud, a member of Norway's freestyle ski team, who won a Gold Medal in the Olympic big air competition. "We're a country with a lot of good genes and we work hard." He and his teammate Ferdinand Dahl told reporters that winter sport is a big part of life in their northern country. It's something just about everyone does from the time they're little kids. "We have this term, that we're born with skis on our feet," Dahl said. "Fun is the fundamental drive. A lot of hard work, I think and a lot of fun and dedication — and skiing."   That national sports culture has created a pipeline of skiing superstars that other countries, so far, can only aspire to match. Young people compete against each other, growing stronger before they ever reach the international level.   [View Details]

The 2022 Winter Olympics are the first Winter Olympic Games in China, the third overall Olympics in China, and the last of three consecutive Olympics in East Asia (after the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea, and the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan).
