Historical version 2 of Button Queen, Marylebone (view current version)

Button shop in Marylebone.

Antique and modern buttons, lots of really unusual ones too. Reminds me of how John Lewis's button section used to be.

The staff in there are very helpful - they have a lot more buttons in boxes behind the counter than are out on display (the display ones seem to be mostly the rare/special ones). When I was in there I showed the chap a scrap of the fabric I had, and after some to & fro with various boxes, he produced some lovely buttons that I wouldn't have thought of by myself but that were perfect.
