- Cuff Links, circa 1890 - Sporty informal cuff links adorned with good luck symbols were popular for both men and women around the early twentieth century. Good luck symbols of the era included the upturned horseshoe and the shamrock or four leaf clover. Tradition says that one should always have the end of the horseshoe symbol pointing up, so that the luck "does not run out."
