Early beaded bag, bow decoration to front, hand sling at back. Embroidered with floral pattern in tiny square glass beads with tiny pearls and gold beads outlines. The base of this embroidery is a gold weave fabric, which is in turn over a floral fabric. Gilded metal clasp frame, and cotton interior. The gold fabric is fraying a little - leaving threads at the edges. The interior needs to be re-attached to the frame. Bag measures 12.5 cm by 16.5 cm wide. Interesting item for a collection.
