    Pewter buttons

    I was looking for a source for kilt jacket buttons and came across this site. Description says the buttons are lead-free pewter plated in silver. Are these good prices for this type of thing?


    7/8" button 75 cents


    3/4" button 60 cents


    13/16" button 75 cents


    3/4" button 50 cents

    Looks like a good source for buttons for kilt jacket conversions. They also have 14 oz hemp canvas at $16.50/yard, war hammers animal parts, and other cool stuff.

    Depending on the style you are looking for, you might want to check out

    I bought the US Eagle buttons for my Eton Modified jacket

    Another member has recommended this one but they are a bit more expensive.

    I don't know too awful much about this type of thing. But, the price seems rather fair.

    I've seen them before and never really thougt about it. If shipping is reasonable they appear to be a bargain. Most I've seen are running about $2 each plus shipping. I like them. O'Neille

    Hey, how many buttons can you put on a jacket anyways?
    .75 is a good deal if you like them.
    I do like them, but I found some pretty cool celtic knot ones at JoAnn's and they'll do for me.
    It don't mean a thing, if you aint got that swing!!
