About twelve years ago, our fast growing custom knitting department, which produces knits to measurements not to size, was in need of buttons to finish the look of the garments. We began the search; however, could not find the selection we needed. So we began to search all over the world to bring the best buttons to the garments we made for our customers. Soon after we opened our button store, Buttonham Palace, the beginning with only hundreds of buttons became the largest button store in the world during those twelve years.
