Early 20th-century floral needlepoint purse, distinguished by its elaborate, hand-stitched tapestry exterior. The intricate floral pattern, set against a dark background, is framed by a detailed metal structure adorned with hand-painted enamel accents and a striking decorative clasp.
The purse features a slender metal chain handle that complements the ornate frame. The interior is fully lined in a period-appropriate light fabric and includes an integrated pocket for small items. The purse is in well-preserved condition, showing minimal signs of age and use. No maker’s mark is visible, but the craftsmanship and style suggest European origins. See photos for measurements.
This purse is a beautiful example of classic early 20th-century women’s accessories and has the appeal of collectible textile art.
