Pebble Textured Square Button

These buttons are white stoneware and all made by hand. They are mostly brown, a few hints of blue here and there.

They are sold 2 per card and are $8.00 per card.
Buttons measure 1 1/16" square.


These buttons were made by rolling out the clay and using wooden roller with a carved design to press in the design in the clay. Then, I used a shaped cutter to cut the shape of the buttons. When the buttons are leather hard, I carefully mark where I want the holes. Then, I use a series of 4 different sizes of hand tools with a drill end to make the holes progressively larger as I go. The buttons are kept flat until they are bone dry. Then, they are bisque fired to cone 04. Finally, they are glazed and fired to cone 6.
