The listing, Vintage Needlepoint Handbag - Antique for sure!!! has ended.
This is from my mother's estate. I know she owned this for over 40 years. And it was old when she got it!!
This little purse measures 7" across and about 5 1/2" in depth, and 1" wide at the bottom. There is a needlepoint pattern of flowers. It looks handmade to me. On the inside it says, "Made in Hungary".
It has metal at the opening, and it has a little tarnish. I have not tried to clean it as I am afraid I would ruin it.
On the inside there is a little pocket that holds a mirror. The mirror is slightly tarnished. I think that is normal for old mirrors.
At the clasp, there is a little decoration. It is missing one rhinestone.
If you have any questions, I will answer the best I can. But I don't know any more about it than what I have stated.
All the stitching looks in good shape. No holes or tears, or anything.
