Possen Gold Button Collection

March 12, 2009 - Fashion


Unlike inferior products, the brass blazer buttons in the Possen Black and Sartoriale collections are alle made in England, by hand.

From the second half of the seventeenth century, brass blazer buttons were produced in the city of London for military and civilian wear. Nowadays they are made in Birmingham in the Midlands.

Each button is cut from solid brass, individually die stamped in the traditional way, and then rough buffed by hand in preparation for plating in either 9CT gold, silver, antique silver or bronze finishes. There are 19 individual processes involved in producing each button.

The majority of our buttons also feature enamel detail in one, two or three different colours. Actually this process is very similar to the cufflinks in the Possen Black collection.

Each enamelling is applied one at a time using a fine paintbrush, before being fired in a kiln at a very high temperature to ensure permanence. After cooling, the button is carefully inspected and the raised detail is burnished by hand.

Spring will arrive soon and to be prepared, make an appointment now for your new tailormade summer blazer with buttons from our gold collection.
