I was fortunate enough this week to happen upon a button vendor who was selling a couple of "matching" sets of antique buttons. I bought several and when they arrived went to work right away making several pairs of earrings. To my disappointment some of the paint on a few buttons had worn off to the point of not matching the other button very well. Thankfully my years of mixing paint and dying shoes paid off. I touched up a few of these blah buttons so that they match their mate. I just listed this pair in my shop tonight and hopefully will have about 3 more pairs to list.

Antique Button Necklace- Depression Glass and Victorian Button- Root Beer, Handmade by Timeless Trinkets
A double layer of vintage goodness. The bottom button is antique glass
and has a faceted edge, in the center I have added an antique button.
The button measures 3/4" and dangles 1" from an 18" stainless steel chain with a 2" extender at the back.
These are gorgeous parts of history. The secrets they know and stories to tell. I feel a wonderful connection with the past when I hold one of these beauties.
Item will come in an attractive gift box ready for gift giving.

Vintage Glass Button Necklace- Cream Hobnail
This vintage pressed glass button has a wonderful hobnail design. The
button is self shanked and I have set it in a brass filigree and
attached to an 18" brass chain. The button with filigree measures 3/4"
and dangles 1" from necklace.
The hobnail glass has to be one of my favorites! I like the simple elegance that these buttons display.
