The visible front is richly decorated with a geometric pattern composed of white beads and silver sequins, arranged in swirls and concentric lines. In the center, a diamond motif made of white beads immediately catches the eye, reinforcing the graphic effect typical of evening accessories from that era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe upper frame of the bag is fitted with a double-ball clasp, visible in dark-finished metal. The chain strap, also visible in the upper left corner, appears original and matching. The meticulous and dense embroidery work uses an alternation of cubic beads and flat sequins, creating a sophisticated play of textures and reflections, particularly highlighted under natural light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe color palette is primarily composed of white, ivory, silver, and slightly golden tones, with darker shades in some motifs, giving the whole a refined and timeless appeal. The bag's structure, quite rigid, is emphasized by a decorative metal frame, finely chiseled on the upper part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSome irregularities in the alignment of the beads and the presence of slight areas where the embroidery thread is visible suggest the object's age and attest to its artisanal authenticity. No logo or inscription is visible on the front, which corresponds to anonymous productions or those from small workshops of the early 20th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed item sold as is. The bag shows visible signs of wear on the beads and metal frame, as well as some small missing areas in the embroidery. The metal's patina and the slight deformation of the structure highlight its authenticity and age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDid you know?\u003c\/b\u003e Beaded and sequined handbags were very fashionable during the Art Deco period (1920s-1930s), appreciated for their sophistication at evening events and balls.
