Tony, there's one possible button from Vimose itself that I'm aware of but don't seem to have a picture of it. I'm in Copenhagen next week so will see if I can find it.
Meanwhile, here's a couple of examples from Thorsberg which might suit? The first set might be a bit 'barbarian' for your tastes but the second, plainer, cast bronze examples might be just the thing.
Brillant many many thanks Makus and Matt just what I was after. I am amazed at the size of some of them. Thanks for that Pommel Matt very nice I will have a better look later. I have started the belt buckle hope to finish today and then go onto the buttons. Need too buy some belt leather have everting but Again many thanks chears Will post soon.
