OWL EYES – Vintage Bronze-Tone Metal Button
Two circles. One captivating expression.
Sometimes the simplest ideas produce the most memorable designs.
OWL EYES transforms an everyday fastening into an intriguing miniature object.
Set against a dark, gently domed metal surface, two raised circular eyelets form a distinctive pair.
Their arrangement brings to mind the watchful eyes of an owl, giving this understated button an unexpectedly playful character.
The aged bronze-tone finish reveals a palette of deep brown, muted copper and warm metallic undertones.
The lighter eyelets stand out against the darker background, emphasising the clarity of the design.
A clever interpretation of the traditional two-hole button.
Its restrained geometry recalls the industrial-inspired accessories and modernist influences of the 1980s.
Rather than concealing the stitching holes, the design makes them its defining feature.
This unusual detail lends itself beautifully to wool jackets, substantial knitwear, tailored coats and garments made from natural fabrics.
Its earthy metallic tones complement tobacco brown, forest green, camel, charcoal and black.
With its compact 18mm diameter, OWL EYES offers a subtle yet distinctive finishing touch.
An appealing choice for designers and dressmakers who enjoy discovering unconventional vintage trimmings.
A small design statement with an unmistakable personality.
