Ivory Pavé Pearl Bead Oval Wedding or Evening Clutch Purse, Japan – 1950s

About the Item

Though it would be an eye-catching "something old" wedding accessory, this clutch is enough of a standout to hold its own in any formal setting. While its unusual oval shape is its most prominent feature, its textured surface—consisting of hundreds of pavé pearls—sets it apart from other evening bags. It reminds us of champagne bubbles. Cheers! Petite oval evening clutch covered in 3 mm concentric pearl beads; punctuated ½” from outside edge with a circle of 5 mm pearls. Ivory satin interior with one small side pocket; top “Sakura” metal zipper closure. fabric: poly satin, faux pearl beads noteworthy: gently spot clean with soap and water or compressed air alterations: replaced missing pearls with age appropriate matches condition: good with gentle lining wear and discoloration measurements: width: 7” height: 4” depth: ½” mouth opening: to 3” (Please see final photo for size perspective.) label: La Regale (Japan)
