Title
Modern Button
Description
English: Copper alloy button. Die stamped concavo-convex button front with a drawn wire loop attached behind. The front bears the image of an Egyptian burial mask. This presumably refers to the discovery by Howard Carter of the burial of Tutankamun (1922), which provoked enormous popular interest in the subject of Egyptology. Western interest had hitherto focussed on architectural, Biblical or esoteric aspects of ancient Egypt. Suggested date: Modern, 1922-1930.
