Wood Beads & Rings Our wooden beads and rings feature lumber harvested as a 100% sustainable resource; consequently our mill has been awarded a Gold Certificate by the Forest Stewardship Council.
The Forest Stewardship Council, http://www.fscus.org/
for their efforts at re-growing at least one tree for every tree harvested. Our stewardship of wood as a precious natural resource will hopefully lead others to take good care of the forest while it is in our temporary care, leaving it in better shape then we found it for our children and our children's children. |

That's right our FACTORY. Since 1939, our family has produced these unique wooden trims in NYC with only one thing in mind....... the customer and his garment, hand bag or whatever project they're putting their hard earned time and money into.
We're not a store or a bogus website pretending to be the actual source of what they sell. Our factory in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn (where the Dodgers use to play!) is open for your inspection anytime, for you to see our products being made. Raw wood comes in one door and finished wood trim goes out the other!
While you're there you can learn the secret of a fine wood finish, that is no secret at all. Beautiful results can be obtained easily if you prepare the wood surface to accept a finish, "troubleshoot" before application to minimize problems during the finishing process, and use high-quality wood finishing products, to stain, seal and polish with glorious results. |

Sheets and turnings of wood come in one door, and finished buttons, toggles, beads and buckles go out the other. That's what makes all of the buttons we produce unique and stylish. The pictures that you see when you enter our site are the same quality and value that we ship when you order from our family firm (founded by our dear 'ol Dad, Murray, and his younger brothers, Nat and Hy, in 1939)

A button's ligne, refers to a button's size. The word ligne, is a French word that became the standard reference used by German button manufacturers in the early 18th century.
Ligne is the internationally recognized standard. What does it actually measure? Points of contention actually. Consensus at the time was that a "ligne" measured the inside diameter of a "round wick folded flat." A ligne measurement is inches divided by .0888, or cm divided by 2.2558.
In 1897 Spitteler filed for (and was granted) a patent for casein in Germany. He marketed casein as Galalith. Spitteler's casein invention is the product of milk protein mixed with formaldehyde. We also sell casein buttons. |
