Antique satin stitched figural dual scenic evening purse handbag jeweled frame

Magnificent antique satin stitch figural dual scenic purse jeweled frame

The Rarest Dual Scenic Figural Satin Stitched Antique Purse, ca. 1900

Absolutely the most dramatic purse I have ever laid my eyes upon,
breathtaking in every possible way including it's original condition,
having found nothing even close to compare it, but based on it's size,
structural detail and decorative elements, I estimate it's age to be from
the late 1800's to the turn of the 1900's, of course, it could be older,
this hand made satin stitched purse is the best I've encountered and
belongs in the finest, well kept and beloved collection of antique purses,
the precision of the stitching was executed by a master needle worker,
the depths of expression are unsurpassed with profound use of color,
every aspect is a work of art including the impeccable jeweled frame,
the interior is superb, the entire purse is superior, undamaged, unused,
showing no signs of wear, this purse must be seen in person to be fully
appreciated, I am confident it is European, most likely made in France,
don't let this one escape you, it's surely the only one in existence,
stored away and nearly untouched since it's completion, pristine,
unblemished, exquisite romance and garden scenic embroidered purse,
please look further by clicking the photo to review all the details.
