Circa 1910s, possibly earlier. Edwardian & Art Deco.
Beautifully designed silver steel & black glass beaded purse, with a stunning floral filigree metal frame and chain. The interior of the purse is lined with an interesting pink & purple striped satin or silk material. Also included with the purse, is a small compact mirror that also appears to have a small slit/pocket for money or small papers.
Purse measures approximately 7 inches long (from top of frame to bottom of bag) by 5.4 inches wide. Chain has a drop length of approximately 6 inches.
In good condition for its age. Please note that some of the beads appear to be hanging/loose, as pictured, but this does not detract from the purse and is not very noticeable unless closely observed. Interior lining of the purse is in fairly good and clean condition, with some of the fabric edge detached from the metal frame, also pictured. This can probably be glued or possibly sewn back on, and does not impact the integrity of the purse.
