Candied Handiwork


Who's been sucking on my buttons? Just kidding. These three Bakelite beauties in highly polished butterscotch (with orange juice swirling) are so reflective that you can see the silhouettes of the trees in the vicinity where I took this picture. The buttons look like buffed sweets and I piled them on top of each other to better show their oddly carved rims, which imitate the sloppy stitching on a rag doll or some such needlecraft. Not your everyday buttons, these are very much a peculiar handful.
