Emerald Relic


Drenched in sunshine, this pretty button takes on the color of a deeply glowing emerald. The cuts and carvings are reminiscent of the art deco style with two elongated slits forming a chic design. Like so many of the buttons I post on this blog, this Bakelite specimen comes from my good friend Doreen (aka the Button Queen), who finds, buys and sells every kind of antique button known to man. She's my go-to specialist when it comes to unusual period pieces such as this one. circa 1930.
