The 5 buttons we found are from France and England. They’re all incredibly detailed; simple but interesting. They’re a conversation starter and can be worn with swim trunks just as easily as a sport coat. The chains are 24 inches long and made of steel and finished with a medieval brass effect outside New York City by an 82 year old company. Each has a small story of its provenance:

Grenadiers Infanterie -Found in Chamonix, France these buttons come from the Grenadiers Infanterie and feature the famous flaming grenade logo.

Mont Blanc - Found near the Italian border in Mont Blanc, France these pristine brass buttons feature a floral motif inside an embossed triangle.
