A classic vintage faux pearl cuff link that can be detached and used as a button or just bring back the cuff link. The shape is special not as round. Really special. The chain that holds them together is really sturdy. Sold per pair of pearls so one pair = 2 pearls or one cuff link. Made in Italy 3/4" diameter Vintage policy: all vintage items are sold as is. They are special works of art from a time and place when design and quality were standard. These are from Italy. The quality, the concept, and attention to detail are all superb. There may be handmade finishes. I recommend always testing any washing. Usually cool water hand dry is fine if on a garment. No dryer. No hot sun. Test wash them on the fabric first. Some buttons were made in two pieces and may need some adhesive repair at some point which can be easily glued back. If there is a major issue please feel free to reach out. 

For plaid lovers and even if you don't do plaid you will love this piece. Soft with some drape, medium weight is suitable for a poncho or jacket, maybe a wrap skirt with some bias swing in the front. The palette is excellent, lavender, grey, pumpkin, black, chocolate brown, beige, chartreuse. Will be nice with the black wool binder and I even like the khaki which isn't matchy but is a nice complement. https://letoffefabrics.com/collections/binders Width: 57/58" 100% virgin wool Italian, designer

Price is for 2 panels and 3/4 of a panel continuous Italian wool chunky sweater knit. Each panel is 42", 1 1/8 yard - panel seen in the first image. There is a defining line that distinguishes where the panel cuts off. Colors a sienna with a melange of charcoal and a hint of chocolate. Mechanical stretch, I would trim this out in a hand knitted ribbing out of something special, maybe an old sweater or something vintage cut up for trim. Will be nice in a big cardigan or cocoon type.  70% wool, 30% nylon Width: 59" Made in Italy

Soft woven blend of cotton, virgin wool, cashmere, viscose, and a pinch of nylon you cannot feel along with very tiny flat round iridescent sequins visible on both sides. I don't feel the cotton.

Suitable for jackets, poncho type wraps, something that drapes, maybe a soft open wrap skirt.  Width: 60" 56% cotton, 7% cashmere,  7%  mohair, 6% wool, 6% viscose, 5% nylon, 13% polyamide Made in Italy
