[QUOTE="antique85, post: 4295880, member: 7651"]Thank you for your informative post. I was trying--unsuccessfully-- to figure out if the beads were glass seed beads, and the years it was made ---so this is very helpful information. These purses--although quite beautiful and hand made--so it surprised me that I saw many on ebay and etsy that only cost $30-$40. The other thing that surprised me was how delicate and fragile the purse is: I can't imagine someone actually carrying this one out and about. If anyone is interested, while researching this purse, I found this webpage on the history of beaded purses which is also pinned at the top of the forum: "[URL]https://www.lchshistory.org/beaded-purses-through-the-decades[/URL]"[/QUOTE]
