A vintage purse, probably dating from circa 1912-1920s. It has an ornate design all over, and is made in cream silk embroidered in pearly sequins and little silver bugle beads. The clasp and top edge of the purse are pearl-coloured beads. Inside the bag is heavy cream silk satin. This bag has a lot of age, and has quite a few little faults - the silk has darkened, and is fraying at the edge of the panels, and there are areas of beadwork missing. The pearl-coloured beads are showing their age, and have some scratches and loss of covering. The inside is sound, apart from some stitching coming away at the gusset, and a little discolouration. However, it?s still a lovely example of a fashionable lady?s evening purse. Measures 19cm wide and 13cm high (7.1/2 inches by 5.1/8 inches).
