Scenic Beaded Purses Facts & Tips

 


Rare Mini or Child's Antique Scenic Beaded Purse

 

<<<< Back to Scenic Beaded Purses

You will not believe how darling this rare little scenic beaded mini purse is.  So few of these are still in existence, this wonderful example could very well be a child's purse from the early 1900's.

I am so excited to offer it to you, who knows if or when I will see another.




    

My photos are very good but taken with artificial lighting, so the upper background clear bead on a soft white threading is not showing as well as I would like it to.  The scene is just too cute for words, a mother duck leading her ducklings across the green grass.  Above is what appears to be a small castle with steeple and a rather grand dark green tree.  Both sides are a mirror reflection and I'm showing lots of photos.  I don't see a single bead out of place and all the fringe is intact.

    

The purse is as clean as it will get, however, there is a small amount of discolor at the edge where it meets the frame but it is minimal and should not distract you from considering this extremely unusual scenic mini purse.  You'll have to believe me, this purse looks marvelous and much better then these photos.

    

The original interior lining is very good, a soft delicate cotton fabric, no wear or tear.  The frame and chain handle have darkened with age and show their years but are secure and stable, no bends or problems, just natural aging.  Overall, this purse is in splendid condition, no significant flaws and measures top to bottom, a wee 6 inches long by 3 3/4 wide, the chain drops 4 1/4 inches.  Let me say again how really precious this little vintage scenic beaded purse is, you must have it.
