Antique Vintage Glass Micro Seed Bead Purse Floral Drawstring Reticule Handbag

This charming older purse is densely covered in tiny glass seed beads in rich cobalt blue, ruby red, emerald green, amber, orange, and black. The elaborate, symmetrical floral design features large red flowers, green foliage, and ornate geometric detailing against a deep blue background. The purse has a distinctive scalloped, pointed bottom, decorative blue beaded loops around the opening, and thick green braided drawstring cords with beaded accents. The substantial weight of the beadwork, traditional construction, and overall appearance suggest an older piece, possibly dating to the early 20th century. Exact age, maker, and country of origin are unknown. * Antique / vintage beaded reticule purse * Intricate glass seed bead floral design * Drawstring closure with braided green cords * Decorative blue beaded loops at opening * Unlined interior with visible textile mesh foundation * Estate sale acquisition Age related wear.
