Lot 92:
Three Vintage Beaded and Sequined Evening Bags and Accessory Case
Description
A trio of vintage formal accessories including two clutches and a matching accessory case. The set includes a Belgian and a Hong Kong made piece, both featuring hand-beaded and sequined decoration.
The first item is a triangular frame clutch constructed from cream fabric, heavily embellished with iridescent sequins and white seed beads in a repeating foliate pattern. The bag is fitted with a gold-tone metal frame, a kiss-lock clasp, and a fine gold-tone chain handle.
The second item is an elongated, hexagonal envelope clutch made of cream fabric. The exterior is decorated with white seed beads arranged in a central scalloped or fish-scale pattern, bordered by scrolling vine-like beadwork. It features a small silver-tone metal clasp.
The third item is a small, rectangular upright pouch, likely intended for cigarettes or small personal items. It features iridescent sequins and white seed bead foliate designs on a cream fabric base, matching the materials and pattern of the frame clutch. It includes a fold-over flap closure.
Condition report:

Some very light surface wear is visible on the metal hardware of the frame clutch (photo 2). No significant losses to the beadwork or sequins are visible in the provided images.
