14L Set of Three 1800s Victorian Shell Pin Shank Buttons, 3/8"

Set of three Victorian diminutive Mother of Pearl shell pin shank buttons.

Measure approximately 4 lignes, 8.5 mm. or 3/8".

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.
