Description
1 Large very rare engraved Tombac & Wedgwood 18th C. Button.
WOW, have you ever seen this button before. Well Alethe Allen was surprised to have found it and I know that because she showed me at a Florida show when she purchased it from a very respected dealer and although I had seen one or two of them before it was the only one I had ever seen for sale. The Tombac metal is engraved and the Wedgwood center is the typical blue and white Jasperware Wedgwood was famous for. Another possibility to own a very rare 18th century button.
Dimensions: SM=Less than 3/4", Medium=3/4" to 1 1/4". Large=1 1/4" and above, extra large=1 3/4" and above
