Possible silver, and unknown button

[Gridwalker306]

Went to the old school for a couple hours tonight, and I got some tail! Dolphin tail that is haha! Targets are getting scarce. The jewelry pieces are not marked, but I think the star earring is silver.

Any thoughts on the button? It seems old but I'm not sure. Has anyone seen this before?

The items look like silver to me, I am not knowledgeable on the buttons but its a good looking one. So much variety on buttons thats the real kicker on them

Its a modern blazer button, we have seen many of this type posted in the past.

I agree, I think the items are silver, but I don't know too much about the button, cool finds!

I'm thinking for the button British military around 1900, Could 'nt find a similar one with the lion and the unicorn with a'' shield ''in between.May be the back as some information on it.

Wonder if there was a big silver whale connected to that tail

Yes Crusader, while researching I found another thread from 2008 with this very same button.

It sort of looks old, but something is off with the lettering. I can definitely see why it's a modern fantasy button.

Exactly what I was thinking! The back has no writing. It's made in that old military style, but sadly it's a modern "copy" if you will.

nice silvers! I found a similar style sterling screw-back earring last year. It was marked on the flat part of the screw portion. Might be hiding there for you too. Definitely has some age to it!

Nice work on the blazer button and earing. Good digs.
