It's a hot day outside, but this lump of chocolate won't be melting too soon. It's Bakelite! A huge old coat button from the 1930's, this hardy chunk is a special find. The large carvings at the top of the button form deep folds while the lighter and more shallow carvings depict three hearts, somewhat reminiscent of a shamrock. Feels to me like a charmed button. c. Depression era.
