Description

A set of six, Arts & Crafts, Victorian/Edwardian, cast-silver buttons - Chester 1901, James Deakin & Sons – 20mm diameter.

A good set of six cast-silver buttons - stylised swirling floral design typical of the Arts & Crafts/Art Nouveau period and in a style often associated with Liberty & Co. Each button carries full Sterling hallmarks for Chester 1901, the year of Queen Victoria's death and Edward VII's accession, together with the sponsors'/makers' mark JD WD for James Deakin & Sons (John & William F Deakin).

I trade in small silver, jewellery and objets d'art. I sell primarily at antiques fairs and in cabinets in Christique Antique Centre in Dorking. I try to find unusual and interesting stock and like to keep turning it over, so I can buy more. Postage and packing are free within the UK - unless explicitly stated otherwise. All fine jewellery will be supplied with a box. If the box/case is described in the text, it will be the one photographed, but may not be if it is not mentioned explicitly. I keep hardly any stock at home, if you want to buy something and need it urgently, I will usually do it the next day, but it may take me some time to respond if you need extra photographs and/or details about the piece that I do not have to hand, as I typically visit the antiques centre just once a week. If you don't see what you're looking for - feel free to send an enquiry via the site. I have only been able to list a portion of my stock.

I will always mention anything that materially affects the aesthetic or function of a piece, but will not attempt to describe what I consider to be normal for age and use. Please use the photographs as well as you can and I’m always happy to answer specific questions.
