Buttons for funky 70s coat

[themerchantsofvintage]

Hi All,

I have this NWOT very well made heavy garardine coat that is missing its buttons. The three button hole openings are 1-3/8" end to end and I am looking for four matching buttons to put one extra on the inside - if not, three will do. They need to compliment the four small faux antiquated silver rings that run through suede bands around the waist of the coat.

And if anyone has any information on Horst Mandel or Tanagra that would be great too!

Thanks!!!

Thanks, Harriet! I'm going to go to a button shop in town and see what I can find. I'm wondering if this would have had just plain black buttons - what do you think, silvery or black???

 

[Hattysattic]

Personally I would go for plain black as it might be hard to match the silver exactly?

But I suppose you could buy both to try if they are cheap enough..
