Petri "Golden Lady" is the only term I've heard to describe her.
Rareair has one in his gallery.

| Thanks for the tip. I searched 14 pages of horn buttons in the gallery and found it in two photos, but neither was used in a post where I might have found more info. It was in the yellow 23 window Bus auctioned in Las Vegas a few weeks ago. |

Flat Four still sells them. That's a good place to pick out your favorite with all on one page.

Golden Lady is what we in the West refer to this horn push. Everywhere else, namely Europe, it’s referred to as the Cameo Medallion
Originals were made by Petri.
In recent times, Flat4 has reproduced it in its original size. While ISP West has reproduced it in a smaller size to fit 1956-59 Beetle & 1955-67 Bus steering wheels.
