VTG Button Lot #70 (29 pcs, 1930-60) asymmetrical mod abstract

img Watchful Eagle Antiques (Please read entire listing carefully, especially Description and Condition portions) Title: 29 VTG Button Lot 1930-60 1 style asymmetrical mod abstract recessed variety Background : We recently acquired a large collection of buttons - over 20 pounds, probably over 10000 pieces. They are primarily from the early 1910s to the 1970s. The collection included buttons made out of the following materials - glass, china, shell, leather, bakelite, celluloid, vegetable ivory, plastic, goodyear, metal, wood, composition, etc. Types included self shanks, metal shanks, 2 hole, 4 hole, whistle, pad, etc. Sizes range from large to diminutive. I have a pretty good background in antiques, but I am not a button expert. I can recognize vintage versus more modern, but other than identifying glass & seashell as a material, my education has been what I have learned over the past few weeks. I have done my best to sort them into related lots and identify materials, but I am sure that I have made some mistakes. Please use your own knowledge & expertise to make decisions. I welcome polite corrections to any mistakes I may have made. Photos show the actual group that will be sent. Please read entire description and view all photos for the best evaluation of lot. Please check our other listings for any other button lots that you may be interested in as we will combine shipping whenever possible.Description: Up for sale is this lot / set of 29 Vintage Buttons, matching style/mold but they are in 4 different sizes & 4 different colors (beige, navy, teal, & olive green/grey). The mold seems to be a recessed asymmetrical circle which reminds me of an modern/ abstract design. Despite, the more modern design, the shank seems older which might mean that these are more Art Deco in the timeline. My best guess is that these date to the 1940s - 1960s. There are 4 different sizes which range from approx. 0.68 - 1.25 inches. They have a wire pin shank. The breakdown of colors & sizes is as follows :For the olive green/grey, there are 15 (2 - 1.25", 2 - 1.0625, 1 - 0.75", & 10 - 0.6875")For the beige, there are 7 (1 - 0.75", & 6 - 0.6875")For the navy blue, there are 5 (1 - 1.25", 1 - 1.0625, & 3 - 0.6875")For the teal blue, there are 2 ( 1 - 0.75", & 1 - 0.6875")Please view all photos.
