Extraordinary hand coloured celluoid frame and moire silk 'rose' handbag, French
About the Item
A very rare and outstanding yellow silk moire handbag, topped with a beautiful and intact hand painted celluloid 'rose', with green leaves. Handbags with these highly decorative and eye catching rose motifs are rare, but the size, design, colour and condition of this particular frame is truly outstanding. The beautifully matched bag is made from vintage yellow silk moire fabric, and is a recent construct, the process of matching the frame to a suitable and enhancing fabric being lengthy and very time consuming. The lining is made from vintage black silk. Whether to be worn, certainly a wow factor piece, or to be simply owned and admired, this is a magical piece.

View AllAn Art Deco style rectangular beaded bag, Pierre Cardin, France, 1970
By Pierre Cardin Couture
Located in Greyabbey, County Down
Pierre Cardin’s preference, right from the start, was always for large jewels, and always designed in close connection with the garment, accentuating a predominant element of the cut, or drawing attention to a detail. Training essentially as an architect, he moved into fashion, working first for Paquin, them moving to Elsa Schiaparelli and , finally, Christian Dior, before opening his own house in 1950. Designing ground breaking...

A rare hand coloured celluloid and silk velvet 'rose' handbag, France, 1920s.
Located in Greyabbey, County Down
A real collector's piece, and conversation point, this highly imaginative and charming handbag design is a rarity, and is wonderful to use and wear.
The centre of the 'rose' pulls to one side, releasing the catch, hence allowing the bag to open. The top is made from delicately hand curled 'petals' of coloured celluloid, the actual frame in dark green is robust and strong, with stronger green leaves, underlying the 'bloom'. The bag is made from mole brown silk velvet, with a black 'ruffled' trim highlight.
