These buttons are all mother of pearl smokey sew thru buttons and are polished and pretty. The largest are 1.5” in diameter and the smallest two are just over an inch in diameter. The price is for all thirteen buttons. They’re from the early to mid 1900’s with shades of purple pink and gray rainbow colors. You can see from the backs the polished outer shell. They’re becoming hard to find. The price is for all shown here.
A set of 9 buttons, different sizes, made from natural shell / mother of pearl. These are fairly old, from my vintage collection. These lovely buttons have a very pretty pearly sheen. All of them have a back loop shank. Colours are generally dark grey. One is a crescent moon shape. Some might have a pearlier shell shine than others, and this is because they are vintage, so please expect some wear. Please see photo for details. You will receive what is in the photos (apart from the ruler, which is just to show size).
