These two Beutron cards have plastic buttons from the late 1950’s. They state “They Boil – They Dry Clean and Hot Irons cannot hurt them.” Note the matching thread to sew them on with.

I still can’t figure out how to do a post how I want it! The pictures seem to go where they please and I can’t always get in a text. I will keep trying!!!





Here are four small black glass buttons with silver lustre around the edge. They are quite pretty.

Here are three pressed plastic buttons from the 1930’s. They were in a container of buttons I acquired recently.

Just recently I was in an Opp shop in Drouin and the lady serving me offered me her jar of buttons which I collected the next day. These Vegetable Ivory buttons were amongst them. They are a nice natural colour and have a pin shank.

Here are some more Austrian Tinies buttons with their fine workmanship. They should measure no more then 5/8ths of an inch and have a cup like japanned back with a loop shank.

These three buttons are the same design but in different colours.


This Sterling Silver button is in the Art Nouveau style and features a lady with flowers in her hair. It measures just over 2 cm. I have just acquired it.

This group of buttons are a pearlized glass in a pretty aqua colour. I got them a few days ago at a market in Yarragon in Gippsland.
