Vintage Black & Gold Starry Night Glass Jewel Button – Circa 1970
A scattering of golden flecks against a midnight-black background.
This vintage interpretation of our Starry Night collection, believed to date from around the 1970s, has the richness and character of an antique jewel.
Its rounded glass surface is covered with countless tiny raised details, creating a densely textured finish reminiscent of precious metal fragments scattered across dark glass.
Antique gold, smoky bronze, amber-brown and deep black mingle across the surface. Rather than forming a regular pattern, these subtle variations produce an intriguing, almost mineral appearance.
The uneven clusters of rounded beads bring to mind an ancient mosaic or a night sky filled with distant stars.
All the decorative appeal of jewellery, expressed through the intricate surface of a vintage glass button.
Styling suggestions
Particularly beautiful on black velvet, these buttons also complement chocolate-brown tweed, camel wool, bronze fabrics and sophisticated eveningwear.
The smallest 13mm size is ideal for cuffs, blouses and delicate finishing details, while the 18mm and 23mm versions make a stronger impression on jackets, cardigans and coats.
For fashion designers and dressmakers, their elaborate finish offers an appealing alternative to conventional metal buttons, introducing ornamental detail without gemstones or rhinestones.
Another chapter of the Starry Night collection
Already available in black and silver, Starry Night now comes in a warmer black and gold colourway.
While the silver version has a cooler appearance, this variation pairs beautifully with autumnal shades, dark tailoring and richly textured winter fabrics.
The same distinctive vintage design, stylistically attributed to circa 1970, interpreted through two different colour palettes.
