Title Royal Navy officer's button, QVC
Nationality British
Period c 1896-1901
Price £5.00

This button (2.3cm) is marked on the reverse 'J.GIEVE & SONS PORTSMOUTH'. Trading under this designation from 1896 to 1903. As Queen Victoria died in 1901, this button would have been produced in a fairly short span of years at the end of the 19th century.

Its condition is magnificent. I have cleaned the front but left the back with some age patina, as is my normal habit.

If you want to comment on this item—re quality, age, etc—please email me.

Just wanted to thank you very much for finding the sword - you have made C's day and therefore mine!
