BTW What are the buttons? They look a treat on the jacket and waistcoat, I like them being round
Thanks!
Yeah, I initially liked the cuff design on the earlier version, but it didn't make it to the more streamlined 2.0.
The buttons are the brass round harp design as seen on the Brian Boru type of jacket, I was going to use some round silver Celtic knot styles, but went with the more subtle antiqued look of the harp buttons.
