#2055 - Antique Beaded Knitted Purse
 
c. 1920.  This beautiful knit beaded purse is in excellent condition.  The beads are a cut iridescent clear ab (aurora borealis) color that sparkles in the light - I've found these beads before on other purses from the 1920s. It was knitted with cream colored silk.  Silver plated triangle frame is embossed on both sides.  The original lining is in perfect shape and is trimmed with metallic trim.  Every loop of the looped fringe is there - and all tight to the bag.  Overall an absolutely excellent purse and very useable. Measures 5" wide at bottom by 11" long.  Chain adds another 5". 

$155
