Antique Victorian Ceramic Buttons Set of 5 Hand Painted Gilt Floral Satsuma Styl
Each button features a hand-painted floral motif with raised enamel and gilt detailing on an ivory-toned glazed earthenware base. The design shows clear Japanese Satsuma-style influence, a popular aesthetic for decorative garment buttons at the turn of the 20th century. The backs have integral ceramic shanks with visible, honest wear from original use. Fine age-related glaze crazing is present throughout, consistent with earthenware of this period. One button has a very small chip on the back edge, not visible from the front and not affecting display or use.

Please review all photos for condition details. Originally intended for coats, cloaks, or decorative bodices, complete sets like this are now sought after by antique button collectors, garment restorers, textile historians, and jewelry or fiber artists.
