Preorders are officially open for our new Celtic Collection! We’re thrilled to introduce this new series of designs inspired by the intricate beauty of illuminated letters where animal forms are woven into elaborate knots. In developing this collection, we selected letters like the “O,” the “A,” and the ampersand for their bold, neutral shapes that translate perfectly into functional hardware. We are also proud to share that each stud button in this collection is fair trade, ensuring your style supports ethical craftsmanship.

Available for May delivery, choose from these unique styles in a satin or glossy finish:

•Celtic Illuminated A with Dog and Bird Stud Brooch
•Celtic Illuminated Ampersand with Lion and Rabbit Stud Button Set
•Celtic Illuminated Ampersand Stud Brooch with Knotted Up Animals
•Celtic Illuminated O with Two Dogs in a Knot Stud Button Set

During this preorder phase, your selection is also your vote; by choosing between our finishes, you are helping us determine which styles to carry in our permanent inventory while ensuring you receive the exact look you want.

Preorders will close on April 15, so head to the online store now to secure your favorites and help us decide the future of this collection!
