Bakelite+Wood #12


Here's a spick and span pair of chocolate Bakelite buttons with wooden inlay running across the octagonal surfaces. This variety of button also comes in a smaller "dime size" whereas these brown biggies are significantly larger than quarters. Under a loupe, the wooden stripes appear tightly made with the assembled pieces fixed together like brickwork and tooled to a smooth perfection.
