A DIVISION ONE PEARL-GLASS & PASTE BUTTON

1 Large 18th C. mirrored glass W/clear & purple paste example. Here is a very intricately designed example of 18th century craftsmanship. The scalloped pearl base is designed with 4 borders to the central design. The large purple faceted flat paste inner border is of striking color and the silver textured foil behind the scalloped carved central designed pearl accentuates the white pearl which is enhanced with a large faceted mirrored glass center. Certainly a lot of detail and design in this example. Dimensions: SM=Less than 3/4", Medium=3/4" to 1 1/4". Large=1 1/4" and above, extra large=1 3/4" and above Date or Era: DIVISION 1=PRE 1918 AND DIVISION 3 IS AFTER 1918 Condition Request Condition Report PLEASE NOTE: These buttons for the most part are antique and may have age related wear.
