Item Name: Button Backs Value Pack SKU: 48450 Description: Button Backs Value Pack is a comprehensive collection of one hundred metal button back findings designed for jewelry makers and lampworkers who create wearable glass art. These findings are manufactured from durable metal alloys engineered to securely hold glass cabochons, glass buttons, and other flat-backed glass components. Each button back features a precisely formed cup or bezel that cradles the glass piece, combined with a soldered or riveted shank attachment that allows for secure fastening to clothing, accessories, or other substrates. The metal construction is corrosion-resistant and finished to a professional standard, ensuring longevity and aesthetic appeal in finished jewelry pieces. This value pack provides the economical advantage of purchasing in bulk, making it ideal for production work, teaching studios, and serious hobbyists who regularly incorporate glass elements into wearable art. How it is used: Button backs are employed in the final assembly stage of glass jewelry creation, after lampworked glass buttons or fused glass cabochons have been completed and cooled. The glass piece is carefully seated into the metal cup of the button back, where it is secured using jewelry adhesive, epoxy, or mechanical fastening methods depending on the specific design of the finding. Once secured, the shank attachment allows the finished button to be sewn onto garments, incorporated into pin backs, or attached to other jewelry components. Button backs are essential for transforming individual glass pieces into functional, wearable items. They are particularly valuable for beadmakers and glass artists who wish to expand their product offerings into the button and jewelry market without requiring specialized metalworking skills. The bulk quantity in this value pack makes it economical for artists maintaining consistent inventory of finished pieces.
