Abstract
A fabric covered button which is of a two-piece construction and includes a button portion which advantageously can have any one of a number of different types of securement means integrally or otherwise formed with it, and a locking ring. The button portion consists of a button head having a stem having a plurality of serrations formed annularly in it integrally formed with the underside of the button head. Any one of a number of different attachment means are or can be integrally formed with the stem, at the terminal end thereof. The fabric is draped over the button head and extended around its edge to the rear thereof. A flat washer-like locking ring having an interior diameter proportioned to forcibly fit over the stem lockingly engages with the respective ones of the serrations. The edges of the fabric at the rear of the button head are lockingly secured between the rear of the button head and the locking ring, by the locking ring when it is secured in place to the stem. The plurality of serrations provide compensation for fabrics of different weights.
