A button measurement scale refers to a system or method used to measure and classify buttons based on their size, typically in the fashion and textile industries. These scales help standardize button sizes for various garments, accessories, or crafts, ensuring uniformity and ease of selection during production.

Button sizes are commonly denoted by the unit “ligne” (abbreviated as L), which is a traditional measurement in the button industry. One ligne is equivalent to 1/40th of an inch. Buttons are categorized into different ligne sizes based on their diameter.

Here is a basic description of the button measurement scale:

1. Ligne System: Buttons are sized using ligne measurements, with one ligne equal to 1/40th of an inch. For instance, a button marked as “20L” means it has a diameter of 20 lignes or approximately 1/2 inch (20 lignes * 1/40 inch/ligne = 1/2 inch).
2. Common Sizes: Buttons can range in sizes, from very small, like 10L or 12L, to larger sizes such as 40L or 60L, and even bigger for specialty or decorative buttons.
3. Application: Different garments, accessories, or projects may require specific button sizes. For instance, smaller buttons are commonly used on shirts or blouses, while larger buttons might be used on coats or jackets.
4. Variations: In addition to the ligne system, some buttons may also have sizes specified in millimeters or inches for more precise measurements, especially in modern manufacturing practices.
