Nautical Buttons from the Archive
Maritime style built half of menswear — the peacoat, the boating blazer, the brass-buttoned bridge coat all descend from naval dress. This collection holds the archive's nautical dies: anchors above all, plus ship's wheels, rope borders and sailor motifs.
They belong on peacoats and duffle coats, nautical blazers, cruise wardrobes and coastal-themed craft. Matched vintage sets in gold, silver and brass finishes with exact millimetre sizing throughout.
Nautical Buttons — Questions, Answered
What buttons does a peacoat use?
Traditionally large anchor-motif buttons, 25–30 mm, in black or brass. Our anchor sets in those sizes are the authentic replacement.
Are anchor buttons only for coats?
Not at all — smaller anchor sets suit blazers, kids' sailor outfits, and craft projects from bags to journals.
What finishes are available?
Bright gold, antique gold, silver, brass and black — each listing photographs its true finish.
Do you have matching cuff sizes?
Many sets include front and cuff sizes; if a listing doesn't, ask the Button Finding Service to check the archive for the smaller die.
