Olive wood bauble button, fully round shape with tunnel shank at bottom. These buttons came to us via a collection from a Sydney designer who was active from the 1930s to 1980s. Sub-optimum storage had caused the wood to dry out and lose it's natural lustre; after being lovingly restored in our workshop, they have again been put back to their former glory. Beautifully aged and full of character. Wood at its best.
 
1990s; France.
