    Description

    Lot of vintage/antique buttons and beads.
    Includes:
    * 9 beads—They vary in size, but an average of 3/4" in diameter.
    Kind of an orangey yellow in color. Could be bakelite?
    * 4 buttons that are very fragile. The largest one has rhinestones; the medium size one is
    extruded noodle, and the two smallest ones are flower-shaped.
    They're all yellow or beige.
    They have to be handled with care or they will crumble.
    I don't know if that gives anyone a clue as to what material they're made of. Celluloid?
    * 10 matching round buttons that were found at an estate sale. The note that was
    with them says they're possibly bone (see last photo). These are in good condition.
    Any questions, please let me know and I'll do my best to answer them.
    I collect buttons, but I'm no expert.
    Please review the photos, as they are part of the item description.
