A VERY RARE DIVISION ONE ENAMEL BUTTON

1 Diminutive early 20th century PLIQUE A JOUR example. You read that correctly. This a rare Plique-A-Jour enamel from the collection of Nikki Deal is in fact a Diminutive size. That is why it was so difficult to photograph, in fact this is as clear as we could get either with the scanner at 1600 DPI or photographing. However you can see this is a blue and yellow paneled Plique a Jour. Really quite wonderful. Nikki Deal had two of these, WOW, if one is not enough why not have two. The other example sold in our April auction earlier this year. 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. We make every effort to point out any significant condition related concerns, but again they are antique and not new.
