Double-Cut Trefoils


Let's see what we have here. These are a set of large double-cut buttons made of chocolate Bakelite with a trefoil design on one side and a fairly minimal design on the other. I've flipped the middle button over to show the unique variation of the sides. Always keeping my eye out for trefoil-shaped buttons, I was pleased to find these last year at an antique mall in St. Louis. Circa 1927.
