St Piran T-bar cufflinks � Cornish tin, cold enamelled cufflinks depicting the flag of St Piran. The T-bar findings are silver-plated.
 
St Piran is the patron saint of tin miners and also the national saint of Cornwall. St Piran rediscovered tin-smelting when his black hearthstone, which was evidently a slab of tin-bearing ore, had the tin smelt out of it and rise to the top to form a white cross. From this came the St Piran flag which is the white cross on the black background that you can see all over Cornwall today. St Piran�s day is celebrated annually on 5th March.
