Covered, or upholstered buttons, also called "Dorset" buttons, are made with a special press that uses specific shaped dies and cutters to crank out fist fulls of upholstery buttons in no time flat. These buttons can be used for deep button tufting, biscuit tufting, or just to add a little extra flair and detail to your furniture piece. These metal button fronts are 1.5" wide and include 144 the button shells only.
