Floral Glass Beaded Bag on German Silver Gate-top Compact Frame
This beautiful glass beaded floral bag arrived with a damaged crochet top and tow tiny pinholes. Geometric sawtooth borders edge the wide top band and frame the cornucopia pie section bottom band. The multicolor floral designs are well balanced and gleam from the subtle beige ground. The original beaded tassel, while present, was a bit shabby and has been appended to restore its former glory. The body was matched to the German silver gate-top frame with bezel set faceted amethyst stone atop the tiny flip-up compact in the lid. The original beige fabric lining was sound and has been retained. I think you will find this little jewel flawless. Measures 4 5/8" x 8" long.
