Brown-Red-Butterscotch


Sometimes I try to create sets of buttons and here's an example of that. One by one, I've been able to find these matching buttons over the years in brown, red and butterscotch. But what I'd really like is to top off this set with a fourth button in green. Wouldn't that be terrific? Anyway, these Bakelite buttons each measure a little over an inch across. Design-wise, they're carved so that three leaves form the borders with a triangular blank space in the centers. The style is art deco from the 1920's. And doggone it, one of these days I'm going to find a green one.
