Buttons
Woven Thread Buttons:
These are four-color woven thread buttons I made for a 16th C. Turkish kaftan. Instructions for these buttons can be found here.
Same technique in two colors for a 16th C. Turkish kaftan.
Thread WrappedButtons:
Two different sized thread wrapped buttons I made for a 16th C. Polish zupan. I wrapped gold thread around the bead,  passing through the core until the bead was completely covered with thread.
These thread wrapped buttons are finished off with a bead cap and small gold bead for extra oomph. The thread is DMC cotton embroidery floss. These buttons are on a 16th C. Turkish entari I made.
Instructions for these buttons can be found on my Classes page under Recreating Period Buttons.
