This round cuff button or shirt stud is made from a disk of gold-colored metal embellished with a cloisonné enamel design of a man wearing a black-colored shirt and red short pants holds a fishing pole. He stands on a green spit of land looking out over light blue water. A black-colored island with a tree is in the distance on the left, and a red boat or possibly house on the water with a white pagoda-style roof and yellow-tinted windows is on the right. The sky is tinted a deep blue.
