Old Brass School Uniform Buttons (1)

Twelve unused  kabuse ('cover')  buttons for  boys' middle school gakuran  school uniform. These are hollow, lightweight and are  2cm in diameter.  The traditional school motif  is a cherry blossom design with the character　中　for middle. This style of uniform  was based on Prussian military uniforms  and hasn't really changed since the early 20th century (though  blazers have become more common in recent years). These buttons  have a nice old character and  date from the mid 20th century.
