Product Details

A characterful mixed set of vintage shank buttons with sculptural detailing and classical iconography. The round pieces feature embossed portraits: a Michelangelo-style David, a coiled Medusa, and a winged figure in motion — all cast in cool antique silver with muted sheen and textured backgrounds. The fourth piece is a small sculpted accent button: a winged cherub or angel face with finely detailed feathers and serene expression.
