Unusual
Spiral Hand Knit Glass Beaded Purse
|
|
This lovely little hand knit vintage beaded purse portrays a design that is not seen too often. The spiral knit shape is very similar to the pie crust design, which offers an appeal that is hard to resist. |

The pattern, with it's 15 knitted sections is a true work of art, no wonder it continues to be so desirable amongst collectors. The cut and faceted blue glass beads are showing well in my photos, they are a delightful color, exhibiting a sparkling sheen. The 2 inch looped fringe work is the perfect skirt for this purse. The overall look is quite nice and should be considered as an addition to your collection of favorite purses. The beadwork is in very fine vintage condition, very secure to the frame at all points, I find no losses to mention or any other flaws.
The silver toned, half circle, arched frame has a sweet embossed design of bell shaped flowers, a pretty crown for this handbag. This embossed design covers the entire outer shell of the frame. The frame is in good working order with the kissing clasp and hinges having no damages or repairs. It appears that the interior was re-lined at some point with a lovely pale plum satiny fabric. The seamstress was thoughtful to trim the interior with beadwork for nice added definition. This creative beaded purse measures 8 inches in overall length by 5 inches across the frame, the chain handle has a 6 inch drop. I have cleaned this purse for you, it carries only the scent of freshness. I believe the next owner will be happy to acquire one of these elusive vintage spiral shaped knit beaded purses.
