Here are three more Ceramic buttons made in South Africa for Incomparable Buttons. Their designs are quite different. The money from their proceeds goes back to the village ladies who have made them.

These two ceramic buttons were handmade by South African village ladies. They were sold under the name Incomparable Buttons and are mainly available in craft shops. They are quite unique.

These two modern buttons are clear plastic realistics depicting a pansy. They would need to be on a coloured fabric to show up the design.

This Mother of Pearl button has been nicely carved with flowers and leaves in a nice design. It is a sew through type and measures 2 1/2cm.

Here is a new button card which I have just purchased. The buttons were made in China and are a very deep clear plastic. The bottom has been coloured green with some small gold metallic flakes added. It gives a great effect when viewing from the top. They have a metal loop shank.

Here are two beautifully carved mother of pearl buttons. One has three large cut steels in the middle while the other has a scrolly metal trim with four tiny cut steels. They make a nice pair.

Here are two handmade glass buttons made by Di Bloomfield from Victoria. One is red and the other yellow and they are very striking. They have a plastic shank attached.

Here is a trio of small metal buttons featuring heads. One has a border of cut steels. It is always interesting with head buttons to wonder who they really are. They are all approximately 14 mm in diameter.

This is a white glass button with a very colourful design. I think it represents a blue butterfly and a yellow flower. It is rather “abstractish” and is a cheery button. It has a metal loop shank.
