The embroidery, also know as, Tambour needlework, is a delicate floral spray with a sweet approaching butterfly. The backside of this black satin purse has only one little small embroidered flower. The fabric is heavily gathered and pleated onto the gold tone frame, giving this diminutive purse a full puffy shape. The black leather gloves were made to compliment the purse and they have matching Beauvais embroidery. The gloves are for a small petite hand, they are labeled inside along with a size 7 sticker. This could be a European size, they measure 3¼ inches wide at the opening by 8½ inches in length to the longest finger. I have what I consider a medium sized hand, I can't put them on at all, they are way too narrow for me. The gold tone frame has two faux pearl balls for the twist clasp and a delicate gold chain handle. The interior is lined with a bold golden satin, there is a pocket with a label that says, hand made in France. Stuffed with tissue, this elegant little evening handbag measures: 5 in height by 7½ at it widest, it puffs out about 2½ inches and the chain handle drops 4 inches. You will be delighted with the condition. All three pieces appear spotless, as if never used. They have been well cared for through the years. The purse is wonderful and the leather gloves are soft and supple, just like fine leather should be. This is a enchanting evening ensemble, perfect for a black tie event, a vintage treat for the more petite woman.
