Cream carved Bakelite frame and patterned silk clutch bag, English, 1920s
About the Item
These is a delightful clutch bag, made from a beautiful Art Deco silk fabric, and piped in grey silk. The frame is of an off white/cream carved Bakelite with motifs of leaves and flowers, and the interior is of sage silk, with a lemon and aquamarine braid edging. The opening/closure operated by lifting the top carved knob and pulling the tag of fabric attached just below the frame, firm and secure. The bag then snaps shut.
Most likely made in the United Kingdom, the clutch bag bears no makers' name or designer label.
