Antique Rare Camel Intaglio Buttons, Made in England — Pair
A remarkable pair of antique buttons from England, each featuring a raised camel intaglio motif set against a deep navy glass or enamel oval, framed in a silver-tone metal bezel with a beautifully aged patina. The camel design — bold, clear, and full of character — is strongly associated with British military and regimental traditions, making these a compelling find for button collectors and history enthusiasts alike.
Discovered in an estate lot of jewelry, these buttons carry the quiet mystery of objects that have passed through many hands. The brass shank backs are stamped "MADE IN ENGLAND", confirming their British origin.
