Superb Collection of Vintage/Retro Buttons - all in a highly collectable superb condition Mackintosh Toffee Tin!!

Years & Years of Collecting - from 1940's till around mid 1980's

Perfect for Fashion Students, Designers of Retro Clothing or Quality Upcycling 

There will be Buttons within this tin - that are no longer available, there are really large ones, tiny ones, sparkly ones, shiny ones, covered ones, delicate & hefty ones - too many to mention.

The photos I've taken of ones laid out were just the ones from the top layers of the tin that I could bung together 

With Tin the weight of these Buttons is over 1.14lbs - not going to bother to count them ~ there's the aroma that hits you straight away, when you remove the lid ~  that many of these have been sat in this tin for an absolute lifetime.

Came from the home of my Aunt who was the most amazing Seamstress whose skills were sought after by many London Designer Workrooms  & she herself whilst being paid very little - was probably the most skilled & stylish Workroom Hands that graced their Salons until she retired in the 80's after meeting countless celebrities & members of the aristocracy! 

Sadly her skills of Sewing, Designing, Repurposing, Knitting, Embroidery & Crotchet never came down the family line to me - I only know how expensive a strip of Buttons are from John Lewis when you need them!

There's plenty of history in this little tin!  Measures Approx 6" wide x 3" deep
