Victorian white
glass buttons 1840’s to early 1900’s
On this card they are all opaque white buttons
Among glass
buttons the term Victorian is used specifically for those of opaque (or more
rarely, transparent) white or colored glass with conventional and floral designs
molded in low relief or incised, with paint or luster trim. They typically have
four-way or two way metal box shanks.
Pictures
other than floral types are unusual. Many have designs of Art Nouveau
influence
