Three Amigos


Party buttons! Woo-hoo! I look at this three-piece set of buttons in bright creamed corn Bakelite and I see a Mexican celebration, or a fiesta of vintage charms going back to the 1920's. Speckled and spotted in random etchings and an explosion of confetti-like doodles, these funsters also resemble egg-like Picasso sculptures. A lot of Spanish merrymaking is rampant in these buttony works of art.

Adios and te veo pronto!
