This unusual 1940 - 1950 French evening handbag comes from the well known and respected designer, Jolles. Hand made in France, this is one of their original creations designed with tiny orange seed beads stitched onto a satin ground. Jolles Originals created some very interesting handbags, this one is adorable with it's little puffy styled shape. The pattern of the beading is consistent throughout the exterior and shows well in my close-up photo. |

The color of the orange is showing very well in my photos. The gold tone frame is quite lovely, I did have some reflection issues during the photography session, so you can expect the frame to look much nicer in person and more golden in color. The top of the frame is studded with five chunky and bright shining prong set rhinestones, a unique crown for this handsome purse. It's a very sturdy and strong frame with a lift up to open clasp and everything is in fine condition with a solid closure.
The side view shows the darling puffy shape of this handbag and stuffed with tissue, it measures 5 in height by 6½ at it's widest, 4¼ across the frame, the sides span out about 2 inches and the French chain handle drops 4½ inches. The interior is signed on one of the two pockets, as shown, and the ivory satin lining is in very nice condition, no wears, just a couple of tiny spots from usage. If this rarer color of orange is a tone you have been wanting to acquire, please consider this Jolles Original designer beaded evening bag, the condition is superb, no disappointments here.
