This button fell out of my cabinet this morning and so I decided to use it for today's post. A sleek and curvaceous shamrock in a tone of emerald green, it's an unusual shape in that there are open spaces between the four lobes. The center is a hypnotic sphere and if you look closely you can see a bit of marbling on its surface. I've polished this button, but a trace of patina has gathered in a few of those hard-to-reach Bakelite crannies.
