About the Item

This rare and exquisite bag was woven out of polychrome glass beads and stiched onto a silver frame around 1890. The silver frame shows a group of cupids performing different tasks. The unusual beadwork uses ornaments from oriental carpets and kelims. The frame is suspended from a solid silver chain. On the inside of the frame are german silver hallmarks and a maker's mark.
