I am a button collector.

Lee's Buttons is a family owned retail storefront in Charleston, SC. We stock specialty buttons for the home sewing and craft markets. My mother
began this business many years ago and it has grown into the business it is
today.

I currently do appraisals on buttons and collections. I am considered to be
expert in her field. My passion for this business and my knowledge has lead
me to appraising buttons for museums and the motion picture industry. I
started out as a high-school teacher. When my mother decided to give
up the business due to health issues, I decided to take over.

I had been attending collectors conventions and button seminars with my
mother since childhood. During this time learning more about buttons and
their values. There are several options for the collector or hobbyist who is
looking for a good source well versed in appraising antique buttons.
