Glinda's Bauble


Here's a button that might as well come from the Land of Oz. Sweep your eyes over this wonderfully extraordinary find! The base is a sort of blob-shaped marvel in bright apple juice Bakelite. Hovering above it rests a metal star escutcheon, ornamented with rhinestones and a truly immaculate pearl. So dramatic and exciting, the whole shebang resembles a priceless object, culled from the boudoir of Glinda, the Good Witch of the North. Circa 1930.
