I bought a coat on ebay recently and have just taken off the hunt buttons and collar. It's a green felt collar with two little brass stags heads which were sewn on top of it, three big buttons and two smaller ones for the sleeves. The buttons are from Huntsman of Savile Row, which is imprinted on the back of them.

Google has just told me that the New Forest Buckhounds stopped hunting in 1997, but I thought I would ask just in case anyone wants a bit of hunting memorabilia. Otherwise I guess I will throw them away, which seems a shame.
 
ok! I agree, but I am seriously decluttering at the moment and I can't add these to the pile of pointless things that have to be stored somewhere!

if you can pm me your address, I'll send them to you.

thanks.
 
I'm mortified, have not been able to log on this weekend die to work.

I have been looking for a set of these buttons and collar studs.

I have wonderful memories of hunting with them in my teens and met my partner there.

Please make sure they get a really good home and do not get seperated, they are part of hunting history.

I'm happy to let CountryGirl have the collar and buttons - they have obviously have a special meaning to her whereas they'll just join my odds and ends of hunting history at home.
 
I'm glad there are people who want them! Countrygirl, you sound more desperate for them than Icemaiden (I hope that is true Icemaiden) so I will send them to you. Thanks Druid.

Can you pm me your address?

Thanks
