Five Petal Flower Buttons

Swap a plain fastener for something with a little more presence with these five petal flower buttons. Each one is built like a small piece of jewelry: a gold-tone metal frame shaped into five rounded petals, a glossy inlay set into every petal, and a single faux pearl seated in the middle. At roughly 17.5mm across, the flower is noticeably larger than an everyday shirt button, so one on a cuff or a collar point is enough to change the look of a piece, while a full row reads as a deliberate design choice rather than a repair.

There are two colours. The white version has a glitter-flecked inlay with a fine iridescent shimmer running through it, which sits beautifully on white, cream, ivory and pastel fabrics and on bridal pieces. The black version has a deep, glossy inlay that gives a crisp, formal contrast, and it is the easier choice for navy, grey, camel, black tailoring and darker knitwear. Both share the same gold-tone frame and faux pearl center, so you can use them across separate garments and still keep a consistent look, or mix the two colours on one piece for a contrast placket.

Why you will love them

– Glossy inlay in glitter-flecked white or deep glossy black

Perfect for

Cardigans, sweaters and knitwear; blouses, shirts and dresses; blazers, light jackets and coats; wedding and bridesmaid outfits; hair accessories, brooches, bags and jewelry making; plus general repairs and button swaps on shop-bought clothing.

How to choose

Count your buttonholes before you order. The 10 piece pack covers a full cardigan or shirt placket with a spare or two in reserve, while the 6 piece pack suits a jacket front, a pair of cuffs or a small craft project. Because the flower is about 17.5mm across, check that your buttonhole is wide enough, or use the buttons as decorative accents sewn beside a hidden snap instead of as working closures. For a soft, tonal finish on pale knits, the white version blends into the fabric and just adds shimmer; for a jacket or blazer where you want the buttons noticed, the black version holds its outline much more strongly against the fabric.

Care

Hand wash or use a gentle cycle inside a mesh bag, and keep the buttons away from bleach, acetone, perfume and hairspray, which can dull both the gold-tone frame and the pearl-look center. Do not press a hot iron directly onto the button face. Wipe with a soft dry cloth rather than a damp one, and store spare buttons in a soft pouch so the frames do not scratch each other. For dry cleaning on a delicate garment, cover the buttons or unpick and re-sew them afterwards.

Please note: the pearl center is a faux pearl finish, not a natural pearl, and the frame is a gold-tone coating over metal. The petal inlays are set individually, so the density of the shimmer in the white version and the depth of the gloss in the black version vary slightly from button to button, and screen colours may differ a little from the buttons in your hand. The 17.5mm measurement is taken across the widest part of the flower and is approximate.
