All of the buttons we sell are made and painted entirely by hand by a group of South African ladies called Incomparable Buttons.
Most of the Incomparable team had never held a paintbrush before they joined the Company and are now absolute masters of their brushes and justifiably proud of their work.
The ladies’ sense of belonging within the company and skills as crafters not only gives them tremendous pleasure but provides them with economic empowerment and has uplifted their families.
Incomparable are totally committed to fair trade policies and to their workers
Every piece is a truly unique work of art.
The buttons are crafted from a stoneware/ceramic mix and undergo several firings at extremely high temperatures. This is the secret to their strength.
All buttons are machine washable.
