Description

The listing, Vintage button collection has ended.

Winner gets all of the vintage buttons that are in the first photo. The other photos are of the same collection so that you can see the details of the front and back of each button, with and without the camera flash. All buttons are in usable condition EXCEPT the glass and metal button with the lion in it -if you look at the back you will see that the metal thread loop has been flattened. However it is a very beautiful button to add to your collection. There is a mixture of glass, brass, metal, and pkastic (possibly Bakelite, I am not an expert on older materials). I have also had these buttons for 29 years, either stored in a glass jar or in a plastic ziploc bag. These are in the same condition as when I acquired them. They definitely are old and perhaps one of a kind. I have enjoyed having these buttons but now it's time to let someone else enjoy them :)
As always, free shipping to Canada and USA. I usually mail items within a day or two of closing. ***Please keep in mind that I am in Canada and it takes a few extra days to reach USA destinations.***
Please take a look at my other auctions. I am posting more beads, Vintage and Antique sewing buttons, a jewelry making book, and soon I will be posting earrings.
All Listia rules apply.
Thank you for bidding. I appreciate your interest in my auctions :)

Bidding! I wondered what to do with those buttons and sudently got the idea of using them in my bridal bouquet, I was making with brooches but I can also add some of them as buttons. Getting hitch next year, so this will be awesome!
