This unique button is in the shape of a Peruvian / Incan idol. The front (face) of the button is pressed into a mould, with the shanks pinched by hand. They are individually made; no two are alike.
Made by Peruvian villagers as part of their cottage industries.
 
Unglazed terracotta.
Collectible; hand wash gently or remove for cleaning.
 
30mm, with shank.
