Description
3 Large late 20th C. Plique A Jour pictorial buttons.
Here are three more of these buttons that were imported in the 1990's by a button dealer in Illinois and have become something collectors enjoy collecting today. Plique a Jour is a French technique that imitates stained glass windows as the enamel does not have a back so when held to the light they are translucent. This lot includes a large multi colored Chinese fish, a large square flower and a medium colorful group of grapes all very colorful examples.
Issued: DIVISION 1=PRE 1918 AND DIVISION 3 IS AFTER 1918
Dimensions: SM=Less than 3/4", Medium=3/4" to 1 1/4". Large=1 1/4" and above, extra large=1 3/4" and above
