These adorable whale-shaped metal buttons add a playful yet vintage touch to handmade garments and accessories. Measuring approximately 25 mm, they come as a set of two and feature an antique silver finish that beautifully highlights the finely cast details.
Made in Europe from ZAMAC, a high-quality zinc alloy commonly used in diecast button production, these buttons are durable yet lightweight. The shank back ensures easy attachment to fabric or yarn, making them ideal for a wide range of textile and mixed media projects.
Their unisex style suits everything from cardigans and light jackets to handcrafted accessories, home décor, and scrapbooking. They’re also perfect for adding tactile interest to dementia twiddle muffs and lap blankets.
