U.S. Polo Assn. Brand Button

The item depicted is a single, circular metal button, likely made of brass or a brass alloy, given its aged, antiqued gold-tone appearance. It measures approximately 1-1.5 cm in diameter. The button features a raised, embossed design which appears to be a stylized representation of two polo players on horseback, a common logo for the U.S. Polo Assn. brand. The intricate detail of the figures is somewhat worn but still discernible, with a noticeable patina suggesting age and regular use. The background of the emblem has a darkened, oxidized finish, which contrasts with the raised, lighter metallic elements, enhancing the three-dimensional effect. There is a small, dark speck or blemish near the top edge of the button, possibly a minor stain or surface imperfection. The button is attached to a garment made of ribbed fabric, possibly corduroy or a similar woven material with distinct vertical lines, in a muted olive green or khaki color. The fabric shows minor signs of wear consistent with soft goods, with some slight creasing and faint discoloration around the button's attachment point. The button appears to be securely fastened, with no visible signs of damage to its attachment mechanism (though the back is not visible). The craftsmanship of the button's emblem suggests it is machine-stamped with a good level of detail for its size. The overall condition indicates it is a used but well-preserved component from a piece of clothing.
