There is a refreshing boyish joy that is evident in this video. This is a rarity in KZbin videos.

[@mandeepbaweja3021]

Next all i want is - 1. Suit collection 2. Sport coat collection 3. Shirt collection 4. Socks Collection 5. Formal clothing Collection (Tuxedo, Tailcoat, Dinner Jacket) And Most Importantly your SHOE collection 😊 This channel has so many more videosl topics to cover, hence it has an amazing future. Keep it up Rapheal!

[@vanekirk]

Mandeep Baweja I feel the same way. Even buying secondhand or vintage this hobby is not an inexpensive one. But one worthwhile nonetheless. Keep building those collections!

[@briannawilliams7370]

I wonder if Svens father and grandfather had any gold Jew teeth cuff links I heard those are the best

[@firearmsstudent]

The human desire is insatiable.

[@dipro001]

That disgust on your face about Football was amusing and relatable.

[@vanekirk]

I share that disgust with the NFL.

[@hamishharper3370]

I can already tell I'm going to love this series, fantastic video!

[@m.k.v.g.7203]

Thank you very much for this tour. Everyone watching your channel must have realized by now that you are a true connoisseur of classic menswear. With this tour, though, you left me (and I am sure many others) in awe! I thought I had some collection, turns out I do not... Bravissimo, Herr Schneider!

[@dainforsythe7129]

Hey folks, this is a long vid; however! - remarkable in that we get a run down on a fine collection along with the social elements: the stories behind many of the pieces. Raphael - thank you so much for sharing your passion and background with us all!

[@jacksonfleming6837]

Two Things: 1. Please do a video on your rings AND where to get them. 2. where do you recommend buying antique cufflinks.

[@davidbarthel5664]

Wether i like your Videos or not One Thing i cant Denial. You Really Show how Passionate your are about classy Fashion. And driven by that Passion 95% off your Videos are pretty darn impressive. Your attention to Detail is astonishing. Fun fact in the Side, i Dress anything Close to you nor probably will i ever. Im a blue colar Working Class peasent :) yet i find your whole personality so engaging that i allways come back to your Channel. Thank you for all those hours of free high Quality Content. Greetings from Germany and Please excuse my Poor Englisch.

Thank you.

Fantastic video as always, Sven. the box looks worth talking about as well. Finding decent caskets for cufflinks and other jewellery is quite difficult and yours looks very interesting.

[@MrLordLiam316]

I really love this format of videos - looking forward to the rest of the series!

I love the Fort Belvedere Lapis Lazuli in Silver, I shall be ordering them. Thanks Raphael

[@lilomarie7313]

Again a wealth of knowledge. As a vintage accessory collector I enjoyed the post war 1940 to 1950s. I know it's not your style but if you have a fellow collector to share their collection and knowledge I appreciate it. In my vintage hauls they are GREATLY undervalued if they aren't a precious metal or stone. To my advantage I get to enjoy many shapes colors and textures.

[@ashleyjordan8869]

Nice to see you a bit more relaxed in this video. I’ve shopped vintage for cuff links too and will continue to do so!

[@Manicmanuel]

Will you ever give us a walkthrough of your closet? Pretty sure there are many men and quite a few women out there, wanting to see how it looks.....

[@idcook]

This is my second time watching this particular presentation and I’ve already found myself on a tear searching for cloisonne cufflinks. When I find myself mewling over the amount of money I’ve spent on these I’ll blame YOU, Raphael!!! Of course I also extend you my thanks. This is a very sober and sincere discussion regarding a dress item that has, sadly, fallen out of general favor and even awareness of most men today. Cufflinks were far more commonly used when I was a boy and I always enjoyed dressing with them for holidays or whenever my mother suggested I do. I’d be very happy to see cufflinks assume their former eminence. Providing a reasonable excuse for me to go overboard in seeking them out!

[@bronxbaubles]

I think youre crazy to second guess your purchase of those absolutely beautiful amber cufflinks...they are a must in your collection I would say!

[@gyang333]

Really enjoyed this type of video where we get to learn more about the personification of your style and preferences in the accessories you choose.

[@geckomoriadaimyoofwano7157]

I love the purple cufflinks Raphael! You should make a video about purple in mens wear

[@MrCooper83]

Im a big fan of cufflinks and it was great to see yours! I enjoyed this video very much!

[@frankrizzo7185]

Enjoyed seeing the collection and the stories and now I prefer link ones. I am considering the Ft. Belvedere red ones...for my birthday. Very nice quality and that is the least I can do to show my appreciation for all the great videos Raphael. Thank you

[@jimmywinship9569]

I really enjoyed seeing your large and beautiful collection of cuff links.

[@lolvonlolipopp]

Great collection and it's gonna be an awsome series going through your dressing room!

[@johnthevoice6270]

Great! Great! Great! You have a great cuff link collection. Really like the enamel cuff links!

[@Cling30]

Excited for the ring collection. Rings are the accessories that started my interest in men clothing.

[@marcthibault8723]

Very nice collection!

Cool! Looking forward to more in this series.

Nicely presented. I like your friendly frank demeanor. And I like that you describe your outfit at the end.

I know of a bunch of people who have much nicer collections than I do, but we all start somewhere ;)

[@jamiebonneau48]

Can’t wait to see the rest of your wardrobe

[@ConrailFreight]

Nice collection! I know my grandfather has a lot of CuffLinks maybe I should ask him about them.

[@Matthewwpace]

These are beautiful cufflinks. I’d love to own a pair if you ever get rid of some again. I’ll be glad to get more cufflinks and French cuff shirts. Now to find French cuff shirts worth owning

[@misterjib]

Where can I buy your smile?

[@yanisbenchara3006]

Epic, we are waiting for the rest of the accessories and wardrobe collection

[@maltphilistine923]

I love cufflinks. My favorite pair currently is made from Mercury head dimes, minted in the 1920's.

Nice collection sir. Thanks for great videos.

Really nice collection. Geil! I really liked the green, 'scratched' malachite links, but I liked many more as well. Great video.

Interesting. Good video!

Love it. but i wish you could tell us where we can look for quality cufflinks other than fort belvedere. Most of what i find is too expensive for a beginner

[@SweetieSunflower3]

First-class!

[@JohnJohn-pj8oe]

Well Sir, I’m not jealous very often 😉 Beautiful collection

[@SoXFireBlade]

Very interesting and nice collection for a beginner what do you recommend for the first pairs that are versatile other than silk knots ?

[@RizwanKler]

Sven I was offered some diamond encrusted cuff links from a seller in Bolton. I checked at the time and they are a reputable English designer. Tomorrow I am in Bolton and I will tell you more with pictures.

[@SalluhMown]

Fantastic collection. I would love to see a similar video about your shoe collection.

[@gentlemansgazette]

already filmed

[@Nonamefec]

Please do shoe collection next

[@alwaysbeclosing5797]

Sven, wonderful collection. Some of my favorite cufflinks are the vintage/classic styles. I noticed you didnt have any with the chains/linkage that go underneath the shirt cuff, connecting the front to the back. You never got into those? I think when the look is right they can't be beat 😀😁

[@Austiffs_Bricks]

I have my grandfathers cuff links, used to be his father’s. I wear them and there the only pair I own. But they are very meaningful.

[@yanisbenchara3006]

Please Mr raphael, i have a suggestion, can you make a serie of videos about each decade's suits from10's to 2018 , each decade in a video

[@gentlemansgazette]

yep

[@mandeepbaweja3021]

That idea is mind blowing....as i said earlier, this channel has a bright future....i also want to see a video on Sneakers or Trainers. What r the Sneakers that a gentleman can wear.

[@zoukatron]

Sven, a question: do you know what the terms full suite and half suite apply to with regards to cufflinks etc.? I came across the term half suite recently when buying a new set of cufflinks and shirt studs for black tie, and it occurred to me that full suite must surely indicate matching waistcoat studs too.

[@lesgarten]

Kudos for Videos in 4K!

[@marcthibault8723]

The purple ones are nice for anyone who wears winter colours (navy, charcoal, grey, white shtirts).... ☺

[@maximilliandhar5998]

Mr. Schneider, first of awesome content. Can't wait till your next video. I have a question though -How would one wear and pair a light brown suit? Thank you. Keep up the great work.

[@machoprotegido5607]

I really like the amber ones

[@drlatham22]

An impressive collection of Manschettenknoepfe.

[@mathiasoswald2477]

Good evening. Thank you for showing your nice collection. My questions are: How do you clean your cufflinks? There are different metals and materials. Is there an effective and gentle way to clean? I look forward to your answer and thank you in advance. Special regards from Germany!

[@kevinblanchard3588]

Would you recommend Van Cleef and Arpels cufflinks? Or are they not worth it in your opinion? Ive been thinking about buying a pair but they are quite expensive. Thanks for the feedback!

[@RockHudrock]

Those amber ones are great! You should wear them!

[@msilverz]

I know this video is a few years old, but is there any chance you could let us know where you got that lovely cufflink storage box? The ones I've found don't have little compartments. Instead they have something like ring cushions -- little slots between two cushions. The problem is that the double-sided cufflinks (like my rose gold Fort Belvedere monkey's fist cufflinks) don't fit well in those slots. I'd love to find a nice one like the one in this video.

[@caraboska]

Well... there is a way to deal with the aesthetic issues of the T-bar style cufflink, namely to use a barrel-style cuff closure. It might not be a super-orthodox solution, but I'm inclined to think, "Hey, can't argue with results :P"

[@vivekbooshan9954]

Those cufflinks are awfully beautiful, I'm wondering if you'll ever do any seasonal or limited edition versions?

[@JupiterLance]

i have a coin collection, and now i want this..(i'm in my school band and we are required to get cufflinks but this got me into it) and i have so many more hobbies i feel depressed thinking that life is short and ill be getting things for no reason

[@leoi3031]

Do you ever get label pins?

[@punchface3000]

Hi, I have a pair of cufflinks. Possible to tell me the brand and made of ?. Thanks.

[@lxr_rl]

somehow i cant find any shirt to put cufflinks on exept white ones...

[@chandlermorris1]

You kept talking about getting sets in lots. What do you mean by that and how would someone go to locate them?

[@Fredrikwatchesandartwork]

Nice video! I Only buy Cufflinks in 18 kt yellow gold or rose gold👍 look beautiful and is a good investment 👍🇸🇪

[@jack62782]

I’m not sure if I recall correctly of your opinion on a previous article: but what are your thoughts on snap cufflinks? There aren’t any in your collection, so are they negative? For those uninitiated these are cufflinks with a ‘snapping button’ mechanism between the two symmetrical sides, allowing you to separate and button up your French cuff swiftly if you need to. I organise and run several balls and evening events as a student, most with Black Tie dress codes and one in White Tie. When doing physical work it’s very valuable to be able to undo my cuff without worrying about losing them or having to remove them altogether. I imagine the disadvantages of them are that they typically are very subdued and simple in style. People complain that they split under exerted pressure but if you have a well fitted cuff I think this should be fine. Apparently the mechanism can loosen over time but I haven’t experienced this myself.

[@laurencerosenthalwinckler4439]

Sven you used to live in Hamburg? Where should I go for buy cufflinks here?

[@iansoutryer3189]

Although this is 2 years late: try the obvious: try flea markets. Prices are unbeatable.

Dear Rafael please can you tell me the name of the artist of the painting on the wall behind you? thank you very much and kind regards

Surprised you don't like the Amber ones, I think they are beautiful, but that's just me ...Great Video😀

Very nice collection , could have had one wrap around Cufflink and one heavy red stone studded Cufflink. Why so obsessed with enamel and why do you dislike T-bar one's ?
