Herringbone Blazer Button

Herringbone is one of the great patterns of British cloth, and this blazer button translates it into metal with a fine chevron texture worked across the face. The zigzag lines create a lively, shifting play of light on the gold plated finish, giving the button character without the need for a crest. It suits navy blazers, tweed jackets and country tailoring particularly well, echoing the weaves of the cloth itself. Every button goes through more than a dozen stages of making and inspection, and the design is one of the long-standing classics of the Benson & Clegg range. It is available in two sizes: large (2.0cm) for the front of a jacket and small (1.5cm) for the cuffs. It makes a considered gift for those who appreciate traditional detailing.
