This purse, by the youthful French company Jamin Puech, personifies the 70's decade, whose mantra was peace, love and flowers. It is completely covered by large dimensional flowers, and I can almost smell the roses. A perfect small purse for hippies of today and yesterday.

DESCRIPTION:
The bag is petite but very bulbous and extremely dimensional. It has a flat bottom so that it can stand on its own. There is a mango colored leather bag/pouch upon which the huge flowers are affixed. There are three flowers on each side. The underlay bag has slits throughout the leather creating a very unusual and unique visual appearance. Each flower has a diameter of 3" and is fully petaled with petals that are flexible and fluid. There is a large circular "button" in the center of the flower. They "pop" against the semi neutral colors of the leather flowers. The colors of the flowers range from wheat, lemon yellow, saddle brown and avocado green. The frame is a shiny silver metal and it is quite unique. It extends all the way down the sides to the bottom of the bag. It is structural and stylized. There is a half moon metal appendage on the top and the bag closes with a twist lock mechanism. The strap is made of woven straw and is tubular and thick. The strap is knotted at the base of the handle where it attaches to the frame. The drop is 7". The inside is lined with a colorful cotton fabric and the Jamin Puech leather identification label is affixed inside. The inside is in great condition. The bag measures 6"w 6"h x6"x 3"d Overall the bag is in wonderful condition. The petals on some of the flowers curl, this can be rectified by placing a heavy item on top. This doesn't bother me as it is, but to each his own.
The purse is perfect for the young and the "young at heart." It is an instant "pick me up" since the floral aspect makes a fun statement in a quite pleasant and amusing manner. Condition: Excellent VINTAGE - Condition
