These are called Paperweight Buttons these were made around the 1890"s. They used real gold in them for added sparkle, they are just awesome.
This button of which I have 5 of,  was made out of the most gorgeous pink glass ever! so beautiful, with a little added sparkle. This one is my favorite one of all. It is so delicate yet very sturdy.
Oh yes, on of my ticking Totes I just loved the way these came out, use many different colors and styles of ticking fabric from Paris and Germany to the US, and not all had them all on them. I made the Totes to be different on each side. I think this Tote was made 4 years ago, sold right away too. And I think you can see how I used many of the buttons from my collection.
