Here is another sterling silver minaudiere (hard purse) from ca. 1900. This one is hallmarked but I don't know the maker. Possibly European or English. It has a wonderful shield like cartouche on one side and a chased floral design on the reverse. The interior is a green/blue silk voille fabric in excellent condition. The purse has a few dings (dents) but as you can see from the photos you can bearly see them! The wonderful link chain terminates with a ring for wearing on your finger or from ...click for details

I don't know where to start with this one. Clearly at least 100 years old. The base fabric is a heavy duty silk - sturdy enough to withstand the weight of the ornate beadwork. It is a little jacket or shoulder covering or cape or as I like to call it, a "capelet". It is worn over the shoulder and is fitted but does not have sleeves. This one has a standup color and padded shoulders. The long fringe follows the uneven shape of the design and is in excellent condition with only one o ...click for details

How rare is it to find one, let alone a pair of these? Each half doll is attached to its original hand-made pincushion bottom. Both are in a state of needfulness in that the trim is coming undone from the main fabric and there has been staining on the cloth. I wouldn't try to do anything to these as right now they are in their original state. Fabulous! I have a total of 9 photos but could only put up 5 of them here. Email if you wish to see more.
