This elegant necklace flaunts a vintage Japanese cameo, a one-of-a-kind Victorian-Era antique button, and two hand-dyed mother-of-pearl buttons.
Every antique button is a one and only, chosen just for you, and so will not be identical to the image.
The tiny, vintage pearl buttons were hand-carved from Mississippi River mussel shells by the American Pearl Button Company of Washington, which operated between 1908 and 1964.
We lovingly hand-dyed the pearls on the stovetop in our Louisiana design studio.
