Black glass buttons gained popularity in 1860’s when Queen Victoria used jet buttons on her mourning clothing. Most glass buttons are sometimes called jet, but these glass buttons were more accessible to the masses than actual jet gemstones. The black glass buttons with luster finishes (gold or silver) became in favor again from post 1920’s until the late 1940’s when Czech glass buttons were produced in abundance. The designs are varied but always beautiful. These bracelets can be worn dressy or for everyday… but always enchanting!

This 1800’s picture button is a subject popular in the Victorian times…Cherubs & Cupids! This is “Two Cherubs pulling a seashell cart” & is a rarer design. I have left the button shank intact for purposes of collectibility. This is a charming historical statement necklace you will treasure!
These are wonderful pewter on steel buttons from the late 1800’s! They have the faintest tint in a pinky peach hue. So interesting, a piece of history & small & light…what’s not to love!

This gorgeous modern pearl button bracelet will take you from fine to fabulous! The pearl button serves as a backdrop for the polka dot transfer design.
