Beaded Asian purse

Description

This unique crocheted reticule style micro beaded purse is in excellent condition. It was missing its crocheted drawstring closer. Someone had cut a plastic hoop and had it strung on that. I removed it from the plastic hoops so it could be displayed as was intended. Someday I hope to replace the crocheted drawstring.

Collection of Jennifer Whitehair
