More about MB-29
Polkom has been making buttons for over 30 years, and "Half-round shell with raised ribs" (MB-29) is part of our collection of metal shank buttons. The MB-29 design is intended for shirts and dresses (15 mm), women's jackets and cardigans (20–25 mm); choose the metal colour to suit the fabric and the other metal accessories on the garment. As a guide: 15 mm of MB-29 sits well on shirts, blouses, dresses and sleeves; at the other end of the range, 25 mm is for coats and women's jackets.
Design and details
The half-round shell with raised ribs is a delicate motif, suitable for shirts and dresses as well as women's jackets. The coating is even and hard-wearing, and the relief catches the light and emphasises the shape of the design.
Colour and pairing
The "Half-round shell with raised ribs" model is available in four metal colours:
- Nickel is a cool silver tone – suitable for grey suits, black coats and denim.
- Gold – the classic on navy blazers and black or camel coats.
- Gun metal is dark grey with a metallic sheen – suitable when you want a metal button without a strong shine.
- Shiny black combines the shape of a metal button with the colour of black fabric – almost tone on tone on black.
Shiny black looks elegant on black, navy and white fabrics and gives an evening feel. In gold the button adds warmth and a festive touch – suitable for burgundy, camel, beige and black fabrics. Choose the metal colour to echo the other metal accessories on the garment – zip, snaps, buckles.
Choosing the size
"Half-round shell with raised ribs" is used for shirts and dresses (15 mm), women's jackets and cardigans (20–25 mm).
- 15 mm – sleeves, shirts and blouses
- 20 mm – the front of a jacket or cardigan
- 25 mm – jackets, coats and women's suits
Sewing on and buttonholes
The shank on the back lets the button sit upright over the buttonhole without crushing the fabric – especially practical for coats and heavy fabrics. The buttonhole length is roughly the button diameter plus its thickness: 15 mm – approx. 18–20 mm; 20 mm – approx. 23–25 mm; 25 mm – approx. 28–30 mm.
Frequently asked questions

Yes, the design is available in 3 sizes – from 15 mm to 25 mm. Select each size separately in the menu and add the quantity you need.
Which colour of "Half-round shell with raised ribs" should I choose?
Choose nickel for cool and neutral tones, gold for navy, black and warm fabrics, gun metal for menswear and casual wear, and shiny black for evening and formal garments.
