FAQs
Are these buttons safe to machine wash?
Yes, they are durable, but it is recommended to wash garments inside out or use a laundry bag to prevent surface scratching.
What does 23 Lignes mean?
Lignes is a traditional measurement system for buttons; 23 Lignes is equivalent to 15mm in diameter.
Can these be used on heavy coats?
While they can be used, 15mm is typically better suited for lighter jackets, cardigans, or blouses rather than heavy wool overcoats.
Do the buttons contain real crystal?
No, they are high-quality, non-toxic novelty crystal-style buttons made from durable materials designed to look like crystal.
How many buttons are in a single pack?
Each pack contains 3 buttons stored in a protective clip-top box.
Troubleshooting
Button feels loose after sewing
Use a slightly thicker thread or reinforce the attachment by sewing through the shank multiple times; consider using a small button on the inside for added stability.
Buttonhole is too tight for the 15mm button
Gently stretch the buttonhole fabric or use a seam ripper to carefully extend the opening by 1-2mm if the fabric allows.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your buttons, always store them in the provided clip-top box when not in use to prevent scratching or accidental loss. Before attaching, check the buttonhole size on your garment to ensure a snug fit for the 15mm diameter. When washing garments adorned with these buttons, it is advisable to turn the garment inside out or use a laundry mesh bag to protect the crystal finish from impact against the machine drum. Always refer to your garment's specific care label to ensure the wash temperature is compatible with the button material.
