.925 Silver Confederate Local Staff Officer Button -CS18 Civil War Relic Pendant
This listing is for a very unique, hand-made pendant, designed for Civil War relic hunters, metal detecting enthusiasts and history buffs in-general. My name is Leonard Short and I have started a new business combining my two careers of goldsmith/jewelry designer and artifact restoration. This pendant is a precision replica, modeled from a Confederate Staff officer button (Alberts CS18) that was worn during the American Civil War by high-ranking officers, including Generals...as the subject! This pendant is NOT an actual Civil-War period artifact!! This particular design, like the similar CS17, is easily one of the most rare of all varieties of Confederate Staff Officer buttons and likewise, among the most desirable. The design incorporates an eagle with upward turned wings and bold letters "CS" embossed on the eagle's shield. Surrounding the eagle are 13 bold, 5-point stars. The eagle has 3 arrows in its left talon and olive branch in its right talon. These buttons were of a two-piece construction with stamped brass front and an iron back. This pendant exhibits premium, sharp details of all elements. The bail in this pendant is uniquely crafted with long-term wear in mind. It has an opening that measures 3mm x 6mm in order to accommodate a very substantial chain. In addition, the bail has my signature, hinge mechanism.
If you are in need of a nice sterling silver chain on which to wear the pendant, please check out my other listings. My recommended chain style for my pendant line is a 2.5 mm diameter sterling silver wheat style chain. There are several listings for the following lengths: 18" , 20", 24” and 30”.
This is a unique pendant design that you will not find anywhere else!
