Gorgeous & Colorful Hand Beaded Pouch Purse!

Antiques : Beaded Purses & Pouches : Paisley : Velvet

 

This is really a stunning beaded purse! The design is rather paisley with a dark blue background. There is also red, carnelian-colored beads, and shades of green. Some white as well.

The background and interior are brown velvet. The handle is beaded, as well. There are a few minor areas of bead loss on the handle along the edge. The purse also has some embroidery at the top. It is obviously hand made and is really quite lovely!

The pouch is 8 1/4" by 5 1/2". The handle is 12".

It is a really unusual and lovely, early piece!
