Description: Card of 30 antique and vintage clothing buttons -- all featuring an oriental / Asian / Japanese theme. They are mostly Medium in size -- with one or two larges also included. They were produced during various eras -- some in the 1800s, some in the vintage era of the early to mid 1900s, and possibly one more modern. These buttons were made using various materials, including: glass, metal, plastic celluloid, wood, etc. The card they are displayed on is a thinner cardboard work card, on which someone has handwritten the phrase -- ORIENTAL -- in magic marker. Please refer to the ruler pictured in the image for the exact sizes of the buttons. Overall condition: Solid VG+/Excellent..... The buttons may have tarnished a bit with age, or have slight surface wear -- but I have noticed no cracks, dents, or other serious flaws. They are in very nice shape and the tray will display beautifully. See attached photos for more detail on the condition. ***************************************** PLEASE NOTE: I am NOT an expert on vintage buttons. My mom -- Nancy Moran -- was a longtime member of the National Button Society, plus was active in several local button clubs in New York. She downsized her collection before passing away in 2020, so I helped her sell some of her treasures. But I am not familiar with all the terminology and intricacies of button collecting. I try to use various notes she left with the buttons to describe them to the best of my ability, but understand that any terms I use in describing these items, are not terms I am familiar or experienced with. So please use the attached images to form your own opinions. I am also not knowledgeable on the hobby criteria in condition grading -- so I use my condition grades in a commonsense manner -- as if grading any collectible -- they are not based on any hobby standards. Please contact me if you have specific questions, and I will answer them as best I can. Powered by SixBit's eCommerce Solution
