During high school in Concord, Massachusetts, LeeAnn Herreid's art teacher recognized her talent and fascination with metalwork and volunteered her time and torch to teach LeeAnn how to solder metal. As she progressed through high school, LeeAnn worked as a goldsmith in an antique repair and restoration shop.
After graduating from the Rhode Island School of Design, LeeAnn moved to Maine for a few years and gained experience working with 18-carat gold, platinum and diamonds. She moved back to Rhode Island and began working in Newport, where her business flourished. She chose the name Individual Icons to embody the notion that the wearer should find personal expression and functionality in her pieces. Her compass jewelry, for example, is more than just decorative; it helps people find their way.
Four years later, LeeAnn relocated her business to Santa Fe, New Mexico and absorbed inspiration from the different culture, topography and climate. Yet in another four years, she decided to return to New England, and settled in a seaside town in Rhode Island.

My father loves tools and one of his favorite "go-to's" is his level with the laser on it...to make sure anything and everything you could possibly want to hang on your wall is perfectly aligned. His obsession with the level has become such a running joke in our family, I couldn't possibly pass up the opportunity to get these cufflinks for him.
I was quite pleased with the high quality of the workmanship. They have a brilliant and shiny sterling silver finish. The levels really work and the eye-catching green is a very attractive color. They are functional, yet fun, and make for a great conversational piece!

The width of the silver ends of the cufflinks that hold the level in place are wider than the width of the levels, so the silver had to be bent inward in order to glue the sides of the levels to the silver part of the cufflink. In addition, when the levels were glued on, they were glued on slightly crooked. For the price, they should have been made better - it just looks like they were made in a hurry.

I couldn't believe how beautiful these cuff links were in person, so to speak. The finish is brilliant, and the craftsmanship is perfect. My fiance absolutely loved them.

Comments about Level Cufflinks:
This was a great gift for my carpenter friend. He isn't one to dress up a lot, but truly loved the novelty and uniqueness of the cuff links. I was afraid they might look cheesy, but they don't. Was also concerned that the black lines would be really prominent, but they aren't. Really nice quality and nice weight to them too.

Comments about Level Cufflinks:
Bought this for my husband. For the price, this should have been shipped in something higher quality than a plastic bag! That is ridiculous. The actual cufflinks look very nice though, finish is a little duller than I was hoping for. Probably could have found something elsewhere for much cheaper that was packaged a whole lot better.

I wore these the day after they arrived and love them. I've been accused of being "one bubble off center" so now I can prove I'm not!

Comments about Level Cufflinks:
Bought these cuff links for my husband, who works for a home improvement retailer. I thought the finish was a teensy bit rough but he liked that they weren't too glitzy looking. They're shiny without losing that handmade appearance. They look great, work great, and make a statement. Very classy and very subtly clever. Will be keeping an eye out for similar products.

Comments about Level Cufflinks:
I loved the overall design, and ordered them because they were sterling silver, so decent quality. I was a bit disappointed with the crudeness of the silver. I expected it to be a little more polished (smooth).

This was a gift for someone who works with carpentry. He thought it was a very thoughtful and classy gift. The levels could seem kitschy. But, they are actually very classy and attractive.

Comments about Level Cufflinks:
I actually had the cuff links made into a lapel pin and a tie tack/tie chain. For my father (a contractor) he is more likely to wear a pin casually and a tie tack for dressier occasions than cuff links.
The jeweler was very intrigued by the cuff links and had never seen anything like them. I thought they were very unique as well. Definately worth the price. Well made.
