Grand Amour – Gold Shank Button – 22mm | Atelier 27
Grand Amour - Gold Shank Button, 22mm - Sold Individually
Bold, luminous, and built to be noticed. Atelier 27's Grand Amour (Great Love) is a statement shiny gold metal shank button - the larger counterpart to the Petit Amour, designed to bring a jewelry-like quality to coats, cardigans, and structured garments. Atelier 27 imagine it mixed with mother-of-pearl buttons for a layered, bijoux effect, where the scale contrast between the two materials creates something more interesting than either alone.
Designed and produced in France by Atelier 27 (Vingt-Sept), a French fabric and notions house founded by Athénaïs. The entire Atelier 27 button range is sourced from a manufacturer in the Lyon region - the heart of French textile craftsmanship - and every button is produced and finished in France. Atelier 27 recommend Grand Amour for knitwear and cardigans.

How do I use Grand Amour with other buttons?

What does Oeko-Tex certified mean?
Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certification confirms the button has been independently tested and found free from harmful substances - including the metal alloy and any surface treatments.
