A set of cufflinks featuring an 18-c gold finish has been made using parts from Prince Charles’s Aston Martin to raise money for charity.

Pistons removed from the car when the prince decided to convert the vehicle to make it more eco-friendly have been transformed into cufflinks.

A total of 200 cufflinks were made by TMB ArtMetal, and they were designed to resemble the DB6 and the car’s iconic wheel ‘spinners’.

Accented with 18ct gold, the cufflinks will be available for £995 and all proceeds go to the Prince’s youth charity – The Prince’s Trust.

According to Martina Milburn, chief executive of The Prince’s Trust, “With these proceeds, we will be able to help more young people into jobs across the UK.

Young people have been hit hardest in the recession, so it’s now more important than ever to give them the skills and confidence they need to find work.”
