Description
1 Large 19th century master signed metal works pictorial button.
From the collection of the late Shirley Case of Missouri. This button is an extremely fine and desirable example of Japanese Shakudo work.

This incredible example is signed on the reverse in a full large master craftsman signature. The size, the thickness, the fineness and the signature all contribute to the rarity of this great button.
