Photos -  Liberty & Art Nouveau buttons

Liberty & Co. began producing buttons, specifically those designed by Archibald Knox, around the turn of the 20th century during the Art Nouveau period (1890-1915).  Buttons were made of sterling silver and enamel.

The Art Nouveau period in art and design spanned roughly from the early 1890s to the beginning of World War I in 1914.  It was characterized by the use of flowing, organic lines and motifs inspired by nature.  The style appeared in various disciplines including architecture, interior design, jewellery, and graphic arts.

Liberty buttons are very beautiful and are the Topic for discussion at our Club meeting on Tuesday 9^th September...

Visitors are always welcome at our Club meetings.
