Item Details

Description

1 Large size button from the Motiwala Brother studios in India.
This button is one from a set of 12 different Zodiac sign buttons created by the artists of the Motiwala studios in India in the 1950's. There were only 4 sets of these ever made so they are quite limited. The black onyx centers were imported from Germany and were intaglio cut and filled with actual gold paint. The filigree settings are gold vermeil and in fine condition. These as we said are quite scarce.

Issued: DIVISION 1=PRE 1918 AND DIVISION 3 IS AFTER 1918
Dimensions: SM=Less than 3/4", Medium=3/4" to 1 1/4". Large=1 1/4" and above, extra large=1 3/4" and above
