These Italian designer buttons are made to resemble amber, with a central ring and domed escutcheon in antique silver colour. The injection moulded buttons have purposeful 'defects' on the face to mimic the amber gemstone, with slight variations between buttons, with the domed escutcheon placed by hand in the artisanal style that Italy is known for. Fabulous.
 
Square buttons are measured on the diagonal for buttonhole size; add thickness when determining actual size.
 
Square cushion cut, 26mm diameter.
(23mm x 23mm x 7mm thick - not accounting for domed escutcheon)
