An utterly beautiful cream silk embroidered purse, or reticule, circa 1830. The shield shaped body is edged in pink and decorated with pink silk bows. The drawstrings are pink silk and green velvet, an echo of the pink embroidered flowers and green leaves. Beautiful, all original, and so delicate ? the silk is shattering in several areas and there?s one hole where the gauze lining shows through. But it?s such a great reminder of the beautiful needlework of the time. Measures 8 ?? by 9?.

Super antique beaded purse, featuring a basket of fruit and flowers on one side, and a floral wreath on the other, circa 1830. The basket is beaded in yellow and gold; grapes and apples and other fruit spill out of it! Blue cotton lining; the header has gone and the blue silk ribbon drawstring is shattered. There are several holes and repairs, the largest about 5/8”, and it is lacking a fringe. But it’s an unusual, lovely piece of early beadwork! Measures 6 ½” by 6”.
