Title Royal Navy officer's button, QVC
Nationality British
Period c 1896-1901
Price £5.00

This button (2.3cm) is marked on the reverse 'J.GIEVE & SONS PORTSMOUTH'. Trading under this designation from 1896 to 1903. As Queen Victoria died in 1901, this button would have been produced in a fairly short span of years at the end of the 19th century.

Its condition is magnificent. I have cleaned the front but left the back with some age patina, as is my normal habit.

If you want to comment on this item—re quality, age, etc—please email me.

I received the sword and belt this afternoon. Always a bit of a risk buying this sort of thing online but I'm very pleased with the quality of the sword and scabbard...
