The latest additions to the Sterling Buttons archive, fresh from the sorting table. We list new vintage finds every week — rare metals, novelty shapes, and one-off packs that tend to sell once and never return. Check back often, or subscribe to The Button Drawer newsletter to hear about uploads first.
Fresh From the Sorting Table
New packs enter the archive every week as we photograph and list more of the collection — rare metals, novelty shapes, one-off finds. Everything here is finite vintage stock: when a pack sells, that design is usually gone for good, which is why regulars check this page first and why The Button Drawer newsletter exists. If something catches your eye, the safe move is the obvious one.
New Arrivals — Questions, Answered
How often do new buttons appear?
Weekly, typically in small batches as packs are sorted, matched and photographed. The newsletter announces notable finds first.
Will sold-out designs come back?
Almost never — this is finite vintage stock, not manufactured inventory. Occasionally more of a design surfaces during sorting, but treat everything as one-off.
Can I ask for first refusal on certain styles?
Tell us what you collect via the Button Finding Service and we will flag matching finds before they hit the site — collectors of specific motifs do this routinely.
