Winter officially begins in a few days and so I've decided that I'm going to post nothing but black winter coat buttons all week long, starting with this major beauty. The trees are bare now outside, hence it seems fitting to uphold a button depicting three falling leaves etched in the art deco style on this Bakelite stunner from the 1920's. On a side note, this is the first black Bakelite button that I ever owned, purchased from an antique button collector in New Haven, Connecticut many years ago.
