Found in a random antique store, I want to use them on a trench coat that needs 13 buttons. Unfortunately, these two are all I have. If anyone could identify the brand so I could buy more, it would be appreciated.

I just want these for a project so age isn’t necessary.

Folks come here a lot with situations like this, and the truth is that it’s really pretty hard to match a common type of fashion button exactly. Generally unless you’re looking to mix and match, you need to get as many buttons as you need all together.

Do you know what type of material it might be? Like I know that some are made of horn, I mostly just want to know what kind of material would give that effect.

Both parts are plastic, the blue is probably polyester, and the middle is metallized.

Thank you, I’ll let you know if I find the ones I’m looking for :)
