Celluloid Geisha Frame
Celluloid asian-themed frame, with geisha girls and a beaded body. Push button clasp. Old, but replacement, fabric handle. The frame is of 3 geisha women harvesting something from a tree. The interior of the frame has an embedded round mirror on one side, and a (powder?) compartment on the other. The beaded body is original, I am assuming, because the red branches in the center match the branches on the frame.
Collection of Kathy Gunderson
