Edwardian Jeweled Pale Green Trinity Plate Needlepoint Minaudière Handbag, 1900s
About the Item
Equally as coveted by the well-bred Victorienne as by the gin-baby flapper, Trinity Plate reticules and minaudières were THE accessory of choice for fashionable women in the early 20th century. Their gilt frames, ornate latches and sumptuous fabrics nearly doubled as jewelry, as reflected in this jeweled needlepoint version.

Open interior with pockets both sides; gilt flip-top crown clasp inset with sapphire crystals on sides and ball cut sapphire stone at top. Fully lined in beige silk moiré.
