I think its a 2 piece iron back floral/leaves button front. Someone else can tell you when they started making 2 piece brass buttons, I think mid 1800's.

Style is Gothic Revival. No, not Goth, Gothic. :laughing7:

Inspired by stone carvings in Medieval churches.

Absolutely correct. Which would date the button in the second half of the 1800s.
