This is a late 19th century "Egyptian Revival" fully beaded purse. It is in need of some repair. It is parting in spots from the brown plastic or whatever you call that material clasp and the cloth material that is backing up the beaded handle (has like a satiny look) has deteriorated and needs replacement. There may be some of the tiny black beads missing but I can't tell. It looks like a worthwhile project to me. It measures about 8 1/2" high X 8 1/2" wide w/out the fringe or handle included. $ 125.00
