Vintage mixed lot
of 10 mother of pearl shell buttons tinted or dyed a soft gray. Fabulous
MOP luster. This is an assortment of styles and sizes including carved, and self
shank. Lot includes 5 carved buttons and 5 self shank buttons with 2 sizes of
each. Button sizes range from the largest at 7/8" (carved) to the smallest
at 7/16" (self shank). Excellent vintage
condition.
These buttons are from a recent auction purchase of new old stock (NOS) from the
American Pearl Button Company in Washington, Iowa. They made MOP pearl shell
buttons from 1908 to 1965. I have several colors of these gorgeous dyed mother
of pearl buttons: pale pink, raspberry red, light blue, pale green, yellow and
gray. There are numerous sizes in each color so please check my other items for
matching buttons in different styles and sizes. Some of these shell buttons are
carved and some are not. This is a rare opportunity to coordinate your buttons
on projects that require several different sizes of buttons. Keep in mind,
quantities are limited!!
Please use the photos and description to help with your decisions so you can
