Edwardian and Victorian Button Collection

This charming collection of buttons date from Edwardian and Victorian times. They come in a frame with fabric background. There are one pair of realistic metal flower-shaped buttons and ten other different buttons. Materials used are mainly metal, one of glass, two have shell insets, others have what may be celluloid imitating vegetable ivory backgrounds. There are three picture buttons and one showing stylised plant life. The fish button has a Paris backmark.
