Sample card (28) Vintage Czech Glass buttons

Original sample card 28 vintage Czech hand molded glass buttons. Each button is different and shows the sizes, designs and finishes available. With geometric and floral designs and a range of hand painted metallic finishes. These are in excellent condition and are beautifully made and decorated as show pieces.
This sample card is from the collection of a Czech glass button making family who have now ceased production. With the rise of imported copies, the traditional ways of hand pressing buttons have almost become extinct. There are now only two people left hand molding Czech glass buttons and buttons such as these will become increasingly rare.
These are C20th reproductions of antique buttons, press molded with antique molds and using traditional techniques.
For collecting, jewelry making, fashion design, sewing, art and crafting.
