This beautiful cut-steel bead purse was hand-made and owned by one owner. The brown iridescent cut-steel beads glimmer and glow as they catch the light. The purse is silk lined and attached to a brass frame. It has a double-loop fringe of beads and a 15 inch chain. The purse measures 9 1/2 inches by 6 inches and dates from c. 1900 - 1910. Just in time for the holiday parties!
