My Mother-of-Pearl Buttons Arrive

[To get a bit of background, the reader may like to visit the post Buttons, Buttons and MOP Buttons.]

To recap on my specifications of a perfect MOP button -

1. MOP, not cheap trocas
2. Less than 4 mm. I want @wongmanhoi1025 to be able to stitch them on using the machine as well (N.B. a majority of my shirts are machine made). His machine's button clamp couldn't take 4 mm buttons. As simple as that.
3. Curved top to show lustre while accommodating thickness of the threads
4. Curved bottom for easier buttoning

After quite a bit of waiting and anticipation, here they are:

Pearly. Iridescent. Substantial. Just as what @shirtingfantasy ordered.

Though the special order took a number of weeks, the wait was worthwhile.

The concave front (left, lower) and the convex back (right, upper).

Bon Appétit!
