Have no clue what it is, but it's quite unique!

Try this site: http://www.vintagebuttons.net/

Also http://www.nationalbuttonsociety.org...n_Gallery.html

They have photos of similar buttons to yours.

Is it a mold for wax or buttons?

Didn't see JanetM answer.

It could be valuable to a collector. Not sure where one would look to find a collector though. There should be sites online about buttons.

Jan in VA,

Thank you for posting these sites. I could spend an hour just looking. There is so much more that I don't know.

My DH says he thinks it is ceramic center with the brass front edge and backing of the button crimped over it to hold it in place. I myself have no clue, but it sure is beautiful.
