Description
4 Medium/Large 19th to the 21st century glass mounted in metal.
This lot includes a favorite of mine which is the medium sailing vessel, because of its beautiful back. The glass is reverse painted and set in a metal mounting with a filigree wire and enamel floral back. These were made in China in the 29th century and imported for button collectors. There are various pictorial designs but none of these buttons are plentiful as they were made for a short time. The lot also includes 2 late 19th century 1 piece mounted designs under glass buttons and a 21st century under glass design made for the 75th anniversary of the National Button Society and its National Button show that year.
Issued: DIVISION 1=PRE 1918 AND DIVISION 3 IS AFTER 1918
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
