[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 9423653, member: 2844"]Although the rings could be used as curtain rings for a doll's house, these are typical of this type of drawstring bag. It looks like the kind of purse my grandmother used as a young girl for dance lessons in the early 1910s, to keep a hanky in and maybe some change. She also had small celluloid fans specifically for dance lessons. Yours is a bit later, but the same principle, and probably a similar use. The bead purse is older.[/QUOTE]
