Help identifying vintage buttons

Hi,

I'm having trouble identifying some buttons on a 1940/50s dress. They are cool to touch and feel like shell/stone with a slight pearl and clink when tapped together.

Can anyone confirm for me what they are? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Many thanks
Teresa
 
SHells

Those are shells with metal shanks
and you can find further info from vintage buttons dot net. Via them there is a button web ring (very helpful) in locating, describing and purchasing buttons.
