Mother-of-Pearl Button, 18 mm – High-Quality Natural Button for Your Sewing Projects

The 18 mm mother-of-pearl button is a beautiful button made from genuine mother-of-pearl. Because the material is natural, each button has its own unique pattern and shade of color. This makes the button a unique and exclusive choice for shirts, blouses, and knitted cardigans. The button measures 18 mm in diameter and has two holes for sewing. It is easy to sew on with regular sewing thread and is suitable for most sewing machines.

Genuine mother-of-pearl button, 18 mm, with natural variations

Because the material is natural, the color will vary slightly from button to button. Some buttons have a greenish tint, while others are more silvery-white or cream-colored. This variation is part of the charm of genuine mother-of-pearl. No two buttons are exactly alike, which gives your sewing projects a personal and exclusive touch. The surface also has that characteristic delicate sheen found only in genuine mother-of-pearl. This sheen cannot be achieved with plastic buttons, no matter how well they’re made.

How to Use and Maintain the Button

The 18 mm mother-of-pearl button is machine-washable at 30 degrees. You can therefore safely sew it onto clothing that needs to be washed regularly without worrying about damage. With only two holes, it’s also quick and easy to sew on, even in thinner fabrics. The 18 mm size makes the button versatile. It’s a great fit for shirts, cardigans, dresses, and children’s clothing where you want a natural and exclusive look rather than plastic. Mother-of-pearl has been used for fine buttons for centuries, precisely because the material is durable and beautiful to look at.
