A beautiful antique Victorian solitaire button with a floral pietra dura ('hard stone') design.

This is a fine example of a spring stud with a sweet and unusual image.

George West was one of the most prolific manufacturers of button fasteners such as this one. It was created between 1870 and 1890, and is a wonderful piece of Victorian innovation.

The button is in really nice antique condition. There are some nibbles to the stone.

Please be sure to see all of the photos.

There are marks for George West to the reverse.
