John Chatwin & Sons, England

John Chatwin & Sons was a small English producer, manufacturing a limited offering of Confederate buttons.  Any buttons from this maker are considered to be relatively rare.   

Most information on this page is from Tice's book, Dating Buttons..., the pictures are generally from buttons that I have handled.
