Ornate, Authentic Victorian Button Set in Bird’s Nest Pendant | Light Academia

This is a stunning, authentic Victorian, ornate, cut steel through-shank button set in an elegant birds nest pendant. It dresses up or down really well due to its size and the details of the blues / purples are lovely. There was only one other antique button like this in the goodwill button lot I snagged, and I made an exact copy of this necklace for myself because I’m obsessed. 😬 Button deets: extant / authentic Victorian era cut steel—these are quite loved by button collectors & historical costumers. PLEASE NOTE: Necklace deets: thrifted, silver plated chain, 17” long. There is a small amount of verdigree on the chain in one section, visible in the second photo. It’s easily cleanable with a silver cloth, but I’m leaving it up to the buyer’s taste if they like a little authentic weathering. My handmade pendants are crafted with antique and vintage buttons securely epoxied into some lovely settings. The necklace chains are upcycled from thrift stores, keeping the pieces more than 50% re-used/recycled. All handmade jewelry items will come ready to gift in a recycled kraft paper box tied with a piece of thrifted ribbon du jour. I ship in compostable packaging. I strive to present my items clearly & accurately. If there are flaws, I will catalog them & include photos. I am human, however, despite my best efforts—ha! Please communicate with me if something doesn’t meet your expectations so we can troubleshoot a resolution together. Thanks! - Kristen
