Description

These buttons were made at a little button shop in Austria, which has been owned by the same family for 260 years.  Johann Mayer started the business in 1758 after studying button making in Munich. The old  button making equipment is no longer used to manufacture buttons but can be seen preserved on the premises, which is still selling buttons, lace and tailor made clothing.  These buttons are vintage but have never been used. You will get five buttons of the same design, size 15mm.  Self shanks.  I chose them at the button shop whilst in Austria.  The photos do not do them justice.  The top of the button is slightly rounded with a daisy-like design.

They are truly beautiful buttons.
