Products made from shell material include shell buttons, cuff links, stud buttons, metal buttons, and more. Shell buttons are accessories that make use of the natural luster of shells and differences in color tone, and are used on shirts, blouses, and jackets.
The color and texture vary depending on the shell used, such as Takase, blacklip, brownlip, and whitelip. As a natural material, the pattern and color vary from piece to piece. While it is resistant to heat, it is weak against impact and can break easily, so choose it with the applications and handling in mind. Customer reviews mention designs that are easy to coordinate with shirts and blouses, a natural look and sheen, and chamfering that makes it easy to pass through buttonholes.

QWhite buttons look yellow. Depending on the size, buttons with the same color number may appear to be different colors.
For polyester materials and similar, if the item is white or a light color, the button color may discolor due to the production lot or aging.
If you absolutely need the colors to match, there are methods such as using a dyeable type and dyeing it to match the textile color.
However, even after dyeing, the color may still discolor over time, such as after 5 to 10 years.
QCan button samples be arranged?
We are sorry, but we cannot provide button samples free of charge. Orders can be placed starting from a minimum of 1 piece, so please place your order from each product page.
