"buckle porn"


it's been a long time since i posted some button porn
but you are in for a real treat today!
strictly speaking it is buckle porn
but there are a few buttons thrown in to the mix too
enjoy!


so i found someone selling a load of fantastic mother-of-pearl buckles
i had no idea how big these were going to be and they had been listed
as buttons so i thought they maybe teeny but they are a good size. . . .


i love the cards these are on
they are so pretty and the buckles

are really shiny and vibrant and also in two sizes
i shall feel bad removing these from their packaging but i will need to sell some of these!


pretty and shiny mmmm.....

really cute little buckles

love the texture

some buttons for you die hard button fans!!

can brown be pretty?
oh yes it can if it is mother-of-pearl!


tawny

gorgeousness

pearly lips!

a big pile of beautiful

irridescent - shiny- beauty


oh my just look at these FANTASTIC 20's/30's childrens novelty buttons
there is a mix of glass and plastic
owls - terriers - pelicans - swallows
i actually bought these for the swallows thinking they would be the same as the bakelite ones that i used on the button christmas tree - they weren't but they are really sweet anyway!


*******
hope you enjoyed your vintage haberdashery porn fix!!
stayed tuned for more!!

I have been collecting buckles and buttons with my baby sitting money and allowance since I was a child, and have considered selling my valuablepreciousworthless collection now that I'm middle aged, but I love your blue buckles on cards and remember how entranced I was when I first started.
