“As metals like copper, brass, and bronze age and patina, they become more beautiful over time. Metal buttons lend themselves a great addition to a handmade garment that is going to be worn for years. I like to think my buttons are adding a finishing touch to a masterpiece that someone else has created. A joint creation in a sense. When someone has taken so much time and effort to create such a beautiful garment, they shouldn't be putting generic buttons on such a thoughtfully crafted piece of clothing.” —Nicole Ibey, creator of the Handmade Metal Buttons Bring the beauty of the natural world to your handknits with the Handmade Metal Buttons. Carefully handcrafted by a Vermont-based maker, these buttons are created from a sheet of metal that’s been naturally patinated to produce a beautiful, aged appearance.
