Old moulds, all handmade by metal engravers are used today to create these gorgeous pressed 26mm black and silver dragonfly glass buttons. The glass maker
uses the moulds by attaching it to a pair of pliers, which is then bolted to the workbench next to the furnace. The artist then handpresses each button by hand, one at a time to create unique pieces of art. After the buttons have been pressed and cleaned, they are painted or washed then baked to keep the finish from peeling off. Each finish gives
a different look to the same button. These buttons have a metal shank attached to the back. They are an older design, invented many years before the single mould of glass with the shank included was made. Bead Vault values the contribution of the Bohemian artisans of last century. The history and heritage of the master glass artists and metal
workers is almost gone. At Bead Vault we are endeavouring to continue to give you the pleasure of adornment by offering reproductions of many styles from this period.
