These are the perfect earrings for the serious seamstress & quilter! I have taken 1930’s brown Bakelite buttons and paired them with vintage unused bobbin thread. They are surprisingly light and will swing showing both sides of the thread. Fun!
This late 1800’s large picture button was originally titled “Cupid at the Fountain”. I have left the shank intact to preserve its’ collectibility. I have stacked a smaller antique button above it to give it even more interest. Wearable History!
Lots of colors in these pearl button earrings! The natural “waves” of the shell were typically seen in the older buttons, before mainstream manufacturing was common. These are larger in size but still light and comfortable.
This Circa post 1920’s black glass button has wonderful cut glass design overlayed with gold luster. This is between 70 & 80 years old and still retains its sharp detail & luster. Art Deco Glamour!
Classic black and silver make this a very versatile button ring. The matte black vintage button has a silver luster frame trim that lends to its’ classic style. The glass button is early 1900’s and the wide adjustable band makes it very comfortable to wear!

These steel buttons were made from late 1700’s thru early 1800’s by riveting small steel pieces onto a brass backing. Some cut steel buttons combined stamped and riveting processes. Originally they were thought of as a substitute for diamonds and marcasite. They must have sparkled in the candlelight of an evening gathering! I have left the shank on the back as to preserve their collectibility.
This simple geometric design is just lovely on these white metal antique buttons. Interesting enough to be noticed & light enough to wear all day long!
So much to love about this early 1800’s button! The geometric simple star with border design is so modern for a button so old. The wide no pinch band is comfortable & adjustable. Historically chic! Please note: this button is over 200 years old and retains some character tarnish. See pictures.
So much to love about this late 1800’s button! The stylized design of Grain….wheat? Corn? The button has a silver cast with just a hint of subtle gold showing through. The wide no pinch band is comfortable & adjustable. Historically chic!
