Renee says: “I have “Colour Washed” this amazing “Antique button in rich shades of red and chocolate, then burnished back for an old world patina. The image is of a rearing lion and shield, which I absolutely love. Set as always in solid sterling silver, this piece looks great with a silver chain, cuff, or pearls as shown in photos. The detail on this 1800’s era button is remarkable and utterly charming. If you like what you see in the photos, you will love this as part of your jewellery collection! Antique button pendants…treasures from a by gone era to cherish today. Scroll thru’ images for up close peek.”

Absolutely amazing jewellery with a uniqueness of its own, showcasing the talent and warmth of the creator, Renee. I have several of her pieces already and wait anxiously for new photos of pieces for sale. Kathleen

Antique Picture Buttons
Making their appearance in the mid 1800’s era, Picture Buttons became fashionable by the late 1870’s and were made until about the 1920’s. Most were manufactured in Europe by master craftsmen and are remarkably beautiful and well made. A Picture Button is metal, sometimes a combination of metals such as steel, silver, copper or brass. Many of these buttons have been given names, either when they were originally made or later as to identify them for collectors. Many Picture Buttons feature designs that depict fables, myths, operas, scenes or popular items of the era. Picture Buttons are true miniature treasures from a bygone era.
