Product Details

1890s–1910s handcrafted evening reticule bag. Beautifully constructed from a heavy blue and gold woven floral damask brocade. Features a center pocket flap, integrated fabric loop handle, and an exquisite hand-wrapped metallic-threaded tassel at the base accented with an early faux-pearl glass bead. The interior is lined with a stunning gold silk lamé/taffeta. Authenticity Details: Features genuine Edwardian passementerie work. The tassel bead is anchored with period-correct, aged animal hide glue (visible upon close inspection)—a classic indicator of authentic, turn-of-the-century handmade textile construction.
