A lovely vintage beaded purse from the 1910, maybe Art Nouveau, or perhaps a bit later.  The small purse is made of bold darker colored round beads.  Definitely orderly, but stylize, shapes and flowers. 

The framework is brass in a beautiful filigree curving across the top of the bag.  Motif of the framework is scrolls, openwork, tiny flowers. 

Large brass clasp at the top with engraving. Brass chain handle.  

The beadwork is actually sewn directly to the lining and then secured to the framework.  Lining is black in color.

Size: Purse is 5" x 5-1/2".

Some tarnish to the frame but otherwise, I did not see any damage.  Nothing to the beads that I found.
