I have just had a few days in Melbourne with my nephew Graeme. He always takes me somewhere for an outing. I went to The Button Shop, Glenferrie Rd. Malvern for a short while and bought a few new buttons.
Here is one of my purchases in Malvern. It was an expensive button at $20 but will be a lovely antique in 100 years.
It is large at approx. 4 1/2 cm. The purple colour is a great foil for the green, blue, orange and black of the inner disc. I feel it is quite dramatic.
