French Silk Evening Bag

Lustrous pearls are bezel set on the hand etched, gold washed frame of this exquisitely chic French evening bag from the 1950's.

Fortuny style black silk pleats set off this jeweled frame. The pleats are ingeniously worked in alternating order, creating a tone on tone Bargello work effect. The quality and workmanship in this bag are extraordinary, even the seams are piped in fine black leather.

The interior is lined in lustrous black satin and there are two open pockets. The bag is stamped in gold with the name and address of the maker in Paris. This elegant little vintage evening bag has plenty of room for all of the 21st century necessities you might want to carry. It is in pristine condition.
