13L Set of Two Victorian Aubergine Glass Dimi Pin Shank Buttons, 5/16"

Set of two Victorian diminutive, aubergine purple glass pin shank buttons.

Measure approximately 13 lignes, 8.2 mm., or 5/16".

Used during the Victorian and Edwardian eras for button-up boots and gloves (often requiring a buttonhook to fasten), their versatility extended far beyond footwear. They adorned garments of all kinds, from children’s clothing to elegant adult attire. Their petite size made them ideal for blouses, shirts, and cuffs.
