The purse is covered in silver colored cut steel beads in a pin wheel patter on the front and the back.  It has a very thick and lush cut steel beaded fringe on the bottom, and the wrist strap is also heavily decorated with the same cut steel beads.  All of the beading is on black silk.  The interior is also black silk. The purse does not have a snap closure.  It is an open bag that brings the back and front together when it is placed over the wrist.  

The purse is in very nice antique condition.  Please see the condition report above.

The purse is large and heavy.  Please see the photos for the exact measurements.
