Putti Purse Frame
Putti (cherubs) are usually found in Baroque and Renaissance art, not celluloid purse frames. But here we have a wonderful pair of putti and then two dragon-like creatures. Together it does evoke a renaissance architectural detail. The frame has an unusual clasp the teardrop the putti are on swivels, allowing one side of the purse to open.
Collection of Jennifer Whitehair
