Probably dating from the mid 1800's, and measuring 1 & 5/16" NBS Large, this button is made of dyed and molded horn. It features a high relief head of a beautiful woman with lots of detail especially in her hair. It's in very good condition for this type of button. I believe that the holes in the reverse are pick marks from the process of taking the button out of the mold and not worm holes. The front has a very fine line on her face. It has a heavy metal loop shank inserted into the back. $14
