For sale are TWO Victorian Button Boot Hooks. The first hook measures just over 6" long and is marked Sterling 340. In addition, there are three trademark stamps that I can not make out. On the opposite side there is another mark as well. The second hook measures 5" long with the curved thumbprint handle. I believe the handle is Mother of Pearl.
Button hooks were used by men and women for so many items, corset laces, boots, spats, collars and gloves to name just a few.
They fell out of fashion after the First World War. Nice collectibles!
