This antique brass button features a complex geometric openwork design with a central floral-like motif. The face is constructed with radiating lines intersected by concentric textured rings, creating a spiderweb or sunburst effect. The brass has a warm, aged patina with visible remnants of a gilt-tone finish in the recessed areas, providing a striking contrast against the darker high points. The reverse side reveals a sturdy self-shank (dome-style with two holes) integrated into the backplate. The construction is typical of late 19th or early 20th-century metal buttons, showcasing a two-piece assembly. Based on the included ruler, this button measures approximately 11/16 inches (approx. 17-18 mm) in diameter.
