Jewel in the Crown
You don't find buttons like this one every day. Apple juice Bakelite provides a glistening foundation for this doozy—beautified with an order of carved lines that catch the light this way and that way like a stylized collection of attractive gills. See them glisten over a patchwork of shadows. I fancy this button's expensive countenance. Punctuated with a green mini-button, which also tested positive for Bakelite. This major charmer boasts a chic nucleus in the same peppy color as an emerald bead. Just absolutely perfect, from the 1920's.
