A: Yes! These buttons are crafted from genuine natural shell material. Because of this, each button has a slightly unique gradient pattern — a natural characteristic that adds to their charm and authenticity. Q: How many buttons come in one set? A: Each order includes 5 buttons of your chosen size and color. This is typically enough for a standard coat front or cardigan. If you need more, simply increase the quantity at checkout. Q: Which size should I choose for my project? A: As a general guide: 15mm works well for blouses and dresses; 18mm suits cardigans and mid-weight knits; 20mm is ideal for coats and structured outerwear. When in doubt, measure your existing buttonholes or check your pattern's recommended button size. Q: Can these buttons be machine washed? A: Natural shell buttons are delicate. We recommend hand washing or dry cleaning garments with shell buttons to preserve their finish and prevent cracking. Avoid prolonged soaking or high-heat drying. Q: Are the colors consistent between sets? A: Because these are natural shell buttons, there may be slight variations in the gradient pattern between individual buttons and between different production batches. This is a natural characteristic, not a defect. Colors shown in photos are representative of the general tone. Q: What fabrics pair best with these buttons? A: These buttons look stunning on wool coats, cashmere cardigans, silk blouses, linen dresses, and fine knits. The slim edge profile makes them especially well-suited for lightweight and medium-weight woven fabrics. Q: Do you offer bulk or wholesale pricing? A: Yes!
