Bakelite, Double-Dished


Here's the dish! A multi-layered biggie, this button's foundation is a cherry platter in tested Bakelite with a creamed corn plate above it, also Bakelite. Pinned together with a metal stud, this art deco button likely goes back to the late 1920's/early 1930's. Boldly simple and simply bold, it's a stacked illustration of exemplary Style! Notwithstanding a bit of wear on the metal component, this button's a tip-top dish indeed.
