Unusual antique and vintage button lot, 18 buttons. Some of the most interesting.. The largest button, a black/dark brown flower with purple center. Center of the button is a lightweight plastic over purple \"gem\" that changes color at angles (see 2nd photo). The dark material feels like a cross between rubber and plastic (hard rubber?). Smaller tan and dark button to the right (main pic) of that is a lightweight plastic with an \"eye\". To the right again, \"eye\" with a rhinestone. Far right, again a lightweight clear plastic over other material.A black buckle button with rhinestone; Lucite Trapezoid; Wood nut or \"acorn\"; Black liquorice or chocolate candy shape (top left) is very light and hollow. To the right of that, a large, retro looking \"eye\". Above the eye, my fave, looks like a sombrero. I\'m uncertain of and unfamiliar with the material. Feels like a cross between very light wood or straw and plastic. Another black with \"see-in\" color change \"lips\" (has damage - see photo), a really thick faux mother of pearl button, a vintage plastic. One is a picture button of a light plastic. The picture has faded considerably (far right, center of the 3). Possible materials of all combined are hard rubber, lucite, celluloid, wood, clear (vintage/antique) plastics, other opaque and translucent vintage plastics. Most of the photos are a little dark. Changing the light on your device or simply enlarging the pics can help that. When attempting to lighten the photos in editing it gave untrue characteristics of many of the buttons so I\'ve left all but the main photo untouched.
