Here are two carved Mother of Pearl buttons both being sew through type. They are simple in their design but still rather nice. They measure just on 3 1/2cm so are rather large.

This Studio button is of Porcelain with I guess a transfer printed portrait of Jackie Kennedy. It is signed on the back by Shirley Shaw from USA. It measures 3 1/2 cm so is quite large.

Here are three transfer printed porcelain buttons in an oval shape. Two are floral designs, one with a bird. The other one features two children by the seaside. They have a plastic loop shank attached to the back. They would be more decorative than functional.

This modern metal button in the shape of a heart features a lady’s face in a mauve flower like bonnet. It is quite different but I do not know what type of garment it would suit. Maybe it is just for decorative purposes only.

These three little buttons are typical Austrian tinies being 1 cm in diameter. They have tan celluloid with brown velvet set in metal with cut steel trim. They have a domed japanned back.

Here are six different small buttons with Cut Steel incorporated in their design. They are of various metals and each has a metal loop shank.

Here is a metal picture button depicting a tree dividing the button in half. There is a windmill on one side and a building on the other. It measures 2 1/2cm. It is called The Charter Oak Tree.

These six thread buttons are so fine with their delicate design of criss cross threads. The back is a cover of cotton fabric. They measure just under 2 cm.
