This is a lovely designer all beaded evening purse from the shops of Elizabeth Arden of Paris and New York. This purse is actually a French Jolles Original but when I washed this purse, the pale gold Jolles stenciling on the pocket was washed away, you will have to take my word for it. This bright beaded bag is from the 1950 era and the depth of color on this purse is very dramatic with the deep gold beads offering variegated amber tones. |

The beading is a very strong gold color with mixed shades of amber inside the glass beads themselves. I'm showing lots of pictures so you can detect this feature. This purse has been professionally cleaned, it is in sparkling, spotless condition, having no bead loss or repairs that I have found. The beading is rather tight, giving this purse a medium hand but not too stiff.
The gold tone frame suffers no flaws and is enhanced with a row of sparkling, clear, prong set rhinestones. The twist to open clasp works properly and has 2 larger set rhinestones, very pretty effect. The metal is in nice shiny condition, I doubt this purse was carried very much, I find only small signs of age or usage, overall, it's very clean all around, even the chain handle does not show the typical signs of wear or usage.
The interior ivory satin lining is clean, has dual pockets, it's designer label and a little satin change purse. The coin purse shows the tiniest amount of age. Stuffed with tissue, this classic beauty measures 6 inches across the frame, 5 inches top to bottom, the side has a 1½ inch gusset and the beautiful, French style, chain handle drops 5 inches. This classic treasure will carry well to any holiday party or that special occasion. You will enjoy the glamour of this Jolles Original from the Elizabeth Arden shops, let me know and I'll place it aside for you.
