This button, which combines wood and Bakelite, always reminds me of the architectural elements and interior designs from pioneer draftsman, Frank Lloyd Wright. The Bakelite is one slice of apple juice betwixt two slices of orange and fitted perfectly off to the side of a wooden toggle. Notice the wood showing beneath the apple juice section as the Bakelite is positioned over the wood as well as beside it. Sleekly efficient, I love the smart construction of this neat-o button from the 1920's.
