The pink and brown basket of overflowing flowers is framed with an iridescent blue and soft white checkered border. Floral tones include cranberry, pinks, cobalt blue, baby blue, bright red and greens. The basket handle is tied with a large baby blue flowing bow. Bright gold beads trim the center arena and highlight the outer purse edges. The looped fringe work is long and lush, all complete and fully color coordinated. My photos are just ok, they certainly don't show the intense sparkle and shimmer that this purse exhibits, you'll love it when you see it. 
The frame is quite lovely, the silver toned and embossed Nouveau swirling leafy design suits the purse well. The fancy clasp shows the Victorian influence and there is an iridescent bead at each sew hole. The purse has been clean to it's best possible condition. I added a wonderful off-white paisley silk lining and pocket. This large antique purse measures 12 inches long by 7 1/2 wide with the chain hanging 7 1/2 inches. It's a great purse, in super condition, they don't get much better.
