1930's Petit Point Purse with Exotic Birds Scene

Collectibles : Vanity Items : Purse : Petit Point

 

Beautiful Egyptian Revival theme Petit Point Purse featuring 2 exotic Birds perched in a Desert Oasis background.

As with so many Austrian design petit point purses, there is a black trim with hanging planter pots and ornate flora.

There is a unmarked goldtone frame and chain with a raised leaf and scroll pattern. The frame is lined with silver rhinestones or marcasite and blue half round bars of some semi-precious stone and a cabochon drop in the center.

There are tiny micro stitches, which must be at least 35 to 40 per inch. The purse measures 6" by 6 1/2".

The inside is satin lined and clean and has a side pocket inside the purse.

I don't see any obvious wear. Purse may brighten a bit with a cleaning.
