Elegant Handbags Facts & Tips

 


Vintage Black Beaded Evening Purse, ca. 1930's


Click Here For More French Beaded and Elegant Handbags

 

This is truly spectacular and radiant,  hand made in France, a 1930 's black beaded evening purse with a fabulous and chic combination of color and high fashion.

This purse exemplifies the reasons why these French evening bags gained the reputation for being the finest in overall glamour and the ultimate in elegance.






 

  

Check out the radiant colors that just pop off the jet black background seed bead. Beautiful lavenders, pinks, blue, soft white and amber are stitched in a pattern of raised flowers, giving more definition and dimension to this outstanding creation. The all over details are the same on both the front and back sides of this purse. Even though the beading is very snug, the bag has the perfect hand, not too soft and not too stiff. I find no beads missing on this purse, nor any damages. This handbag has been professionally cleaned for your future enjoyment and carries only a scent of springtime freshness.

   

The framing on this purse is a very bright and bold gold tone and it has some wonderful engraved designs. The clasp is the lift up to open type and it works as it should, closing with a gentle snap. There is a twisted row of beading in the colors of black, pink and blue, which wraps itself around the top and sides of the frame. I stitched it more securely to the frame for you, there should be no concerns about it in the future, it is well attached.  I see no problems with this purse, it has totally captured my attention and deservingly so. I'm showing you lots of photos so you can see the fabulous details and exceptional eye appeal. 

   

The interior is lined with a rich black satin, it sports dual pockets, one having a hidden label inside reading made in France. The lining is in clean condition, showing very little signs of usage or age, perhaps a tad bit but hardly noticeable.  This incredible beaded evening handbag measures, stuffed with tissue, 4½ in height by 8 inches across the bottom, the sides gusset out by 1½ inches and the slinky chain handle drops the purse by 5½ inches.  This evening bag looks to be fairly roomy and should address your needs for an evening  that is sure to turn many eyes in your direction.  I know you'll enjoy owning this purse, so let me know and I'll place it aside just for you.
