Bigger than a dime, but a tad smaller than a nickel, here's a medium-sized brown button that tested positive for Bakelite. Someone took excellent care of this old goodie as it's very shiny and came into my collection from a button seller who takes pride in polishing her Bakelite to a pristinely glass-like radiance. Harking back to the 1920's, this chocolate flower makes for one handsome bomboniere.
