The day I got this Ivory button was my lucky day. I was in an opp shop in a tiny country town looking for buttons. Another customer asked me what I wanted buttons for and I told her I was a button collector. She had an amazed look on her face and said I have a tin of old buttons at home that I don’t want. To cut a long story short I went to the lady’s home and got a tin of dusty old buttons from her. There were some good buttons and right at the bottom was this dragon Ivory button which was a real bonus. So you never know where or when you may come upon a treasure. They all needed a good clean but that is part of the fun to see them come up nicely.
