Buttons in black and white

Black and white photocopy of buttons dug out of my old research file from university. The ones with shiny metallic areas scanned in particularly well I think. I had to leave the copier lid up just to stop the buttons backs from damaging the white foam pad on the inside of the lid.
The top row of buttons are particularly decorative, look classical in terms of pattern.

Above door decor - and the ryme thrown in for fun

On the way home one afternoon

I had to stop at this little bit of intricate (I believe metal work).

Photos are a bit blurry as this bit of work is situated above a door,

like a kind of mantel piece to a door actually.

The shapes and forms are clearly Victorian stylised motifs and shapes,
which twist and wind and curl around each other.
