Handmade Ceramic Buttons – Malachite Green (Medium ~ 20 mm)
These buttons are carefully handcrafted from white clay in my farm studio. Each piece is fully shaped and polished by hand. The front is glazed in a rich malachite green, while the back is sanded (un-glazed) to create a smooth surface that won’t catch on the fibers of your knits or wool fabrics. Every button is unique — subtle variations in color and texture highlight their handmade character.
Features:
- Material: mid-stoneware, kiln-fired— durable and long-lasting
- Size: approximately 2 cm in diameter (medium / standard) — perfect for jackets, coats, thick knits, bags, or sewing projects
- Finish: colored glaze on the front; sanded back to protect natural fabrics
- Uses: sewing, knitting, wool garments, handmade clothing, bags, and artisanal accessories — decorative and functional
Why choose these buttons?
- Authentic craftsmanship: each button is handmade, ensuring uniqueness and quality
- Durable material: stoneware firing provides strength and long-term durability
- Carefully finished: sanded back prevents snagging, making them safe for soft fabrics and wool
- Versatile: size and material suitable for a wide range of projects — coats, knits, bags, and more
- One-of-a-kind: slight differences in each button make every purchase unique, ideal for personalized artisan creations
Durability & Care
All buttons are kiln-fired and glazed to stoneware hardness. They are not plastic and may break if struck very forcefully against a hard surface, though this is unlikely. Most buttons are lightweight (slightly heavier than plastic) and do not distort knitted fabrics. Naturally, larger buttons are slightly heavier than smaller ones.
They are washable and resistant to water and detergents. Machine washing is possible on a gentle cycle, though hand washing is recommended for delicate knits. Air drying is advised to avoid contact with the dryer’s metal drum.
Each button is unique, and photos were taken under different lighting to show natural color variations.
