Lovely Josef mid blue beaded bag with an unusual silver plated, clear lucite and rhinestones clasp.

Inside there is a cream satin lining, with pockets for a mirror and comb. There is wear to the silver plating, showing the golden and coppery metal underneath. There are some marks to the lining. The back of the bag to the top right, and sides, has some replacement beads and glue. There are a few loose strands that will need attention. The handle was originally silver plated, and has mostly worn to the golden metal underneath.

This stylish bag would be perfect for an evening or special occasion, or a collector. Hand beaded in USA.
