The beadwork shows the Art Nouveau influence with it's curling details but those bright white bells embellished with 34 bezel set rhinestones are what makes this purse so very unique. The decorative beading is set against a lovely gorgeous blue background, altogether it is quite extraordinary. Overall, the rhinestones are still reasonably clear, much better than would photograph. The 68 total bezels are clean and appear to be pale brass but it's hard to tell for sure with all the sparkle on this purse. The silver tone frame is nicer than would show but does have an aged patination as expected. The fringe is complete, the same color blue, twisted and interlocking. Both sides of the purse are identical. 
The original lining, pocket and cloth label are intact and secure, looking cleaner than shown with a small smudge of discolor to the right but not as dark as in the photo, it actually is barely noticeable. The front of the purse has a red signature bead, a common practice of the beadier during that time. This incredibly cute creation measures 9 1/4 long by 6 1/2 wide, the chain hangs 7 inches, if you like collecting purses that are uncommon, you will want to consider this very different antique glass beaded purse, it will arrive in excellent condition, no losses or negatives, just fascinating.
