Vintage Buttons - Celluloid, Artid and Golden Age

Hello Folks! Today I have some vintage buttons to show you. Above are a mixed collection of vintage celluloid buttons, including 'glow bubbles' (bubble tops), and sew throughs. This mixed card costs £5.00 from Love Buttons on Etsy.

This charming and collectable 1940s Artid plastic button depicts a couple in Indian dress; the man holding a bird and the woman, a stringed instrument. This buttons costs £6.00 from Love Buttons HQ.

Finally, a set of six 'Golden Age' buttons with a floral pattern, perhaps made to imitate fabric, with its fine striations. The buttons have a two-piece construction, and are backmarked "EXTRA TREBLE STANDD". Golden Age buttons date to c. 1830-1850. This set of six buttons costs £16.00 from Love Buttons HQ.
