Glassy and jewel-like, this thickset button in faux tortoise is a lovely chunk of pure Bakelite that's unanimously referred to by collectors as "rootbeer Bakelite." Angled just so in the sun, you can see the various facets carved around this shiny token of vintage plastic, as well as the swirled shades of brownish amber that lie in its peculiar depths. A chic button to be sure.
