Local note

Why natural shell buttons in Mangaluru

On the Karavali coast people already know shell from the beach, and a shell button is that idea at its most refined. Uniform makers and tailors in Mangaluru, Udupi and Manipal benefit from a button that does not melt under a hot iron.

We manufacture the buttons ourselves and dispatch to Mangaluru by courier or transport. We have no office in Mangaluru — orders are handled directly by phone, WhatsApp and email, with samples sent for approval before production.

Yes — shell does not soften under a hot iron the way some plastics do.

Do you offer samples before a bulk order?

Yes. Samples of your chosen size, hole type and shade are sent before production starts, so you can check them on your own fabric and machines.
