Pressed Rarities


In the world of Bakelite, "pressed buttons" present a lighter form of the plastic as opposed to the heaviness and density of a more typical button made of Bakelite. Here's a set of hard-to-find triplets with faintly pressed details that remind me of star-shaped spokes. These pressed buttons tested positive for Bakelite, but what makes them especially unusual is their coloring. I rarely find pressed Bakelite buttons in tones of rootbeer.
