These are buttons from the 1930's made out of indigo and abalone and carved. I removed the leather buttons from a jacket and sewed these antiques on.
The original buttons that came with the jacket on the left and the new to me 1930's button on the right.
Restoring the wood and brass tacks on this vintage cross for a friend. The tacks gave no hold on this heavy figure. So I took it apart, re-stained the wood and reapplied the gold and will put in epoxy and new brass nails.
One of my female Muscovy hatched out 14 baby ducklings this week. I am happy they are thriving on our farm. This duck breed is quite hardy.
