Rootbeer Peepers


Sweet Jeepers! These giant rootbeer buttons tested positive for Bakelite and boy oh boy do they pack a punch. My favorite thing about these bold antiques is the oversized buttonholes with carved rings extending outwards. It almost looks like these big buttons are peering out of huge wrinkly-eyed sockets. Quite sizable, these buttons were cut off of an old winter coat dating back to the 1930's.
