I recently acquired a nice black barathea Argyll jacket. The supplier to my supplier was Clann Crois in Scotland, but apparently they are no longer in business. The jacket has chrome buttons that are somehow brighter, warmer and nicer than the ones you usually see. Now I want a waistcoat to go with it, but my supplier tells me that she has looked hard, but cannot find the same buttons. So, I guess that I will need to rebutton the jacket to match the vest.

I do not care for the chrome buttons you usually see. To me, they scream cheap!

In another thread, McMurdo showed this button from his Montrose doublet:



This is a seriously nice button. Can anybody find a source for it?
