Dave was playing around with several small pieces of Alaskan fossil ivory and turned out these
buttons on his mini lathe. They came out looking like gem stones! The photos really don't do these little beauties justice. One is 7/8 inch diameter, and two are ¾ inch. These would be perfect for a handmade purse project or some other needlework piece that needs a unique button.
You can find these
three buttons currently up for auction on
Ebay!
