Floral Needlepoint Vintage Purse

Floral Needlepoint Vintage Purse
































Burgandy wine colored needlepoint purse has a floral design on both sides. The edge has a coordinating design. The colors in the design are light tan, dark tan, rose pink, red, light green and dark green. Edged in a burgandy piping.


The brass closure on the vintage needlepoint purse is a leaf design and has a chain handle. The interior is lined with a burgandy cotton fabric with a large side pocket.

The vintage needlepoint purse appears to have been lightly used. It is in very good condition. Not sure of the age but I think is from the 1960's. Maybe the 1970's.

Dimensions are 9" tall by 12" at the widest point. The antique brass handle is 9" wide. The bottom is 2" wide.
 
Visitmy Etsy shop for other handmade and vintage items.  I only have a few vintage items but all are very unusual.
