WW2 Canadian Artillery Officer’s Pocket Buttons Lot of 18

This lot consists of 18 pocket buttons intended for use by Canadian Artillery officers during the Second World War. The buttons are of brass construction, each featuring the insignia of the Royal Canadian Artillery, including the distinctive field gun motif and regimental motto. Designed to be attached to an officer’s tunic or jacket, these buttons served both functional and symbolic roles, securing uniform components while displaying regimental affiliation and rank. The lot reflects typical Canadian military uniform accessories issued between 1939 and 1945, aligning with patterns and manufacturing standards of wartime production. The size, design, and composition are consistent with period Canadian military issue, which often featured domed faces, shank backs, and detailed relief work. Such buttons were supplied to officers for field and dress use and are representative of broader Second World War Commonwealth military uniform practices. All pieces in this lot show characteristics appropriate to mid-20th century manufacture.
