Henri Hamm

Henri Hamm (1871–1961) was an arts and button designer and sculptor. Apart from buttons, for which he was best known in Paris, he also designed belt buckles, horn combs, decorative boxes, flasks and furniture. He created using multiple materials, like ivory, bone, celluloid, Bakelite, mother of pearl, wood. His designs include floral and geometric forms, and use sculpture as the main technique. The buttons from his workshop are usually in very rich colours.
