I paid £350 for a 26 button model, its tuned B/F sharp. being repaired at the moment by Andrew Norman. The price they are asking is crazy.

Thanks Wes, I have also found a photo of an English Wheatstone with glass buttons but no Anglo , it’s in D/A tuning , appears to be a bit of a rarity. 
 

[Lachenal glass buttoned Anglo]

I bought a Lachenal Anglo 38 glass button from a Car Boot many years ago, its a wreck  and still in want of repair, there was only a couple of glass buttons remaining and my question is has any body a picture of one its metal ended 38 keys, I have never seen one . not many made probably.

Got the same one Alan at a Car boot sale, make nice earings.

I know they are very rare but its worth a try, it must be in top condition, not asking much is it.

I have only ever seen one and that belonged to Keith Kendrick, 

[New Dipper to brighten a darkened world]
