The button is small but has a lot of meaning, it can talk, can communicate with you. Look, some buttons are showing off its rich and prosperous life, and some are crying to you about its abandonment. They are actually telling our own stories. They are so fascinating, reflecting the brilliance of human art and social history. "said Giorgio, curator of the Italian Button Museum. The world's only button museum is located in a small town called San Alcanjero in Rimini, Italy. It has a collection of more than 10000 buttons, telling the history of mankind since the 14th century and the customs of various countries. Standing in front of the exhibition stand of the museum's button treasures, I saw a pure gold button, which is said to be one of the 13600 gold buttons made by French monarch Francois I for his velvet robe by the best goldsmith in Paris. Louis XIV, the sun king, was not inferior in diamond buttons. In order to attend the banquet, he spent 1.4 million francs embroidering 1826 diamond buttons on his dress to show the imperial style. And Queen Elizabeth I ordered that the cuffs of soldiers be sewn with buttons to prevent them from wiping their noses with their sleeves. The historical lens suddenly pushed to the American Civil War of Independence, and the buttons still talked endlessly about their respective stories. Giorgio pointed to a large brass clasp with a number symbol and said that some soldiers napped and snored like thunder during the war, which was easily detected by the enemy. In order to keep the soldiers from napping, the military sews large buttons on the back of their clothes, so that the soldiers are woken up by the buttons as soon as they turn over. A skull-shaped button aroused the curiosity of the editor. Giorgio said it was a button from the time of King Henry III of France in the 16th century. In order to commemorate his dead lover, he ordered a highly-crafted silversmith to create 216 skull-shaped hollow silver buttons for him to sew on his funeral clothes, thus the "skull button" became all the rage.
