This 4.4 pound Antique Vintage Estate Mixed Old Button Lot Collection Hundreds is a must-have for any collector or crafter. With buttons in a variety of colors, shapes, and materials, this lot is perfect for adding a vintage touch to any project. A mix of wooden, metal, pearl, plastic, etc. Some designer buttons, too. 

Some are from the mid 1950s but have no way to confirm this because I know very little about buttons. The owner was an avid seamstress and had buttons from Eastern Europe and the U.S. Some matching buttons are threaded on cards, grouped by strings while many matching buttons are loose throughout the lot. Look at the photos of the clear package from many angles to get an idea of the variety within the container.
