HornImpex’s natural buffalo horn buttons are handcrafted in Sambhal, India—an internationally recognized hub for horn and bone artistry. Each button is shaped from ethically sourced horn collected as a by-product of the meat industry, ensuring a zero-waste, cruelty-free supply chain. Our artisans hand-turn, grade, and polish every piece, resulting in uniform quality for fashion brands, garment manufacturers, and premium accessory makers across the US, UK, EU, Middle East, Australia, and Canada.
Buffalo horn consists primarily of keratin, a durable natural protein. This gives the buttons high tensile strength, excellent resistance to heat and abrasion, and a unique, natural marbled pattern. No two buttons are identical, making them ideal for luxury apparel.
The process includes slicing, shaping, drilling, turning, polishing, and finishing with non-toxic compounds. Buttons are graded based on density, color uniformity, polish level, and structural integrity.
Based on the image, this model is approx. 28–30 mm with a polished brown finish and 3 or 4 hole design.

Finishes include: matte, semi-gloss, high polish, dyed, or natural grain.
