Default Identify buttons

Have these two buttons and cannot find them on the net, anyone help with this?
I believe the darker one to be bakerlite, no markings on the back, the brass one is a firmin of London, many thanks.

The one on the left is upside down and reads QH (Gothic lettering) it is a Quorn Hunt button.

The one on the right is a 21st Lancers Hunt button - is it bone or horn?

Both buttons are non military.
Please state your intentions.
Do you want to know because you plan to resell them?

Thank you. This, most helpful, I’m really not sure what the button is made from?
