    2 Antique Tan Vegetable Ivory Carved Lacy Buttons W/Metal Crowns Inserts Bracelets Rare!!
    Date from 1860 from what my research said.  My Big Book of Buttons shows a similiar bracelet on pg. 258
    Vegetable ivory is made from the tagua nut.
    Intricately carved and pierced – I don’t see any damage to carvings.
    Each looks like it is carved out of one piece.
    There are 2 bracelets here that need restringing.
    The one bracelet has 3 metal (look copper) crown symbols inserts– this bracelet looks complete
    The other bracelet has 1 crown button and there are 3 buttons that are missing crowns
    Largest button about 1-1/4” in diameter
    Smallest – about ¾” diameter
    From a Non-Smoking Home. Please Email me with any questions and please click into my other auctions and store to see my other listings. Something for everyone!!
    NOTE: Will ship for , in U.S.
    Will combine purchases to save on postage costs whenever possible - all depends on total weight.
