Abstract

A decorative button ( 1 ) includes a base member ( 10 ) and a cap member ( 14 ). The base member ( 10 ) includes a prong-accommodating portion ( 11 ) that receives a prong portion ( 21 ) of a fixing member ( 2 ). The cap member ( 14 ) is disposed on the base member ( 10 ) and forms an outer surface of the decorative button ( 1 ). The base member ( 10 ) is provided with a cap-supporting portion ( 13 ) which abuts to a middle portion of a rear surface of the cap member ( 14 ) to support the cap member ( 14 ), thereby preventing a deformation of the cap member ( 14 ). A top portion ( 13 ′) of the cap-supporting portion ( 13 ) is a plane to abut to the rear surface of the cap member ( 14 ) along the curving of the rear surface.
