Hand-carved golden mother of pearl buttons from an ancient land
Kanukama's mother of pearl buttons are exceptional; hand-carved in Myanmar from the shell of the highly sought-after South Sea gold-lipped Pinctada maxima pearl oyster. Ranging from a dainty 19 mm to a massive 140 mm, their pearl white iridescent surface is shot through with hints of gold.
Our buttons have a quiet, elegant beauty. They have been finished to a high standard, have a lovely smooth touch, a nice thickness and weight to them.
As well as classic round and sophisticated square buttons, we also have delicate flowers, trumpeting elephants and mystical creatures.
Our mother of pearl buttons will add a sophisticated statement to your clothes, a talking point on your soft furnishings, and a bespoke finish to your craft projects. Plus a great find for any button collector.
