Hard Candy, Cherry Swirl


Red Bakelite never looked so bold and delicious. This melt-in-your-mouth coat button is trying to hypnotize you with its carved set of wavy lines and yummy shine. Likely harking back to the Roaring Twenties, it's buttons like this one that shout of jazz-age flamboyance and which makes Bakelite so exciting to collect. And what a snack for the eyes! This big cherry doozy resembles pure candy.
