Stunning vintage needlepoint purse, circa the 1910s or 1920s or so. Black with a pattern of flowers in pale pinks, golds and greens on the front. It has a gold tone clasp and the actual clasp and frame is just as lovely as the bag. Inside is lined in black. There is the one main compartment and a small pockek.
Approx " at the widest and 6" tall not including chain when laid flat.
Please see condition below.

Fair to good vintage condition. Something this old and special is harder for me to classify as I expect more issues. But here we are. There are some small holes, especially on the back side, and something in between the exterior and lining has disintegrated and fine powder tends to come out the holes. So while I don't know that I'd recommend this too much for actual use, it would be stunning as a display object, or for a pattern or study. The frame and clasp are in good working order and excellent condition generally. Priced accordingly, would be much higher if in better condition.

Please note: These are vintage, preworn and/or preloved items. I do my utmost best to list any issues, but signs of wear should be expected, and there are occasionally small things I won't deem worthy of note. Please feel free to send me a missive with any questions. I'm truly happy to help in any way possible and I'm always up for a chat.
