C. 1940's Soft Velvet Pastoral Scene Purse for the Romantic

C. 1940's Soft Velvet Pastoral Scene Purse for the Romantic

The romantic Courting Couple design is woven right into this soft black velvet fabric and is identical on the front and back. The traditional Pastoral Scenes may wax and wane in popularity but they are never totally "out of style." These scenes are also often referred to as "Colonial Couples."

From the 1940's, or earlier, this hand bag has retained it's beautiful bright blue and green hues on the black background. Hand sewn to it's lovely golden frame, the plush fabric is lined with a creamy satin. In pristine condition the fabric is without stains or wear inside and out. This is a "good sized" purse (particularly if used as an evening bag) measuring 8 1/2" x 9 1/2" with one open pocket on the inside. The patterned metal frame is a shiny gold. The twin closures were made with one rhinestone on the tip of each prong-- for a total of four sparkling glass stones. One of the stones is gone but is not readily missed due to the positioning of the prong and the fact that they are not a focal point of the purse. A single gold toned rope chain handle measures 13". The vintage handbag remains in Excellent Condition.
