Pretty antique evening bag in velvet, embroidered with steel cut beads with a floral and geometric motif. Bead fringe. Lovely steel link handle. The frame is also in steel with steel rivets. Dating from around the 1900s.

Some wear on the velvet with a couple of small tears and some rusting on the frame. The peach silk lining has shattered. Some small areas of rust on the beads and a small area missing beads by the frame where the velvet has been worn away.
