Truly a unique treasure, this vintage black beaded Lumured Petite Bead purse has two internal compartments, each fully lined, a top short beaded handle and a kiss style top gold tone metal clasp. It is 11 and 1/2 inches wide by 8 and 1/2 inches tall. Soft sided in structure, the bottom edge is flexible and will expand up to 3 and 1/2 inches based on what you have inside.

One small slide-in compartment contains a beaded matching black beaded fold-down snap front coin bag with a small mirror inside.

If you are a true friend of someone who adores vintage, this purse would be the perfect gift for them; that is, if you can bear to part with it once you have it.

Made in the USA, Lumured purses were made during the late 1940's into the 1950's.

It is a soft frame style, with dual gold tone metal hinges, a single kiss style top clasp that opens both sides and a short soft beaded strap.

Matching beaded interior sides divide the two internal compartments.

A gold stamped label on the inside slide-in pocket reads "Lumured, Petite-Bead, Made in USA".

Quality of workmanship is evident in every detail and shows in this beautiful design. Research shows Lumured made this style of bag in both black and white, both of which were popular.

This handbag is in generally Excellent Vintage condition, with no stains, tears, odors or worn lining. All that I can find to report is that there are some missing beads, which certainly will not affect how much you like this unique purse. Detail photos are included of the beading so you can see for yourself how hard that is to see due to the large number of those small beads.

Large enough to comfortably carry today's must-haves, including our phone, cosmetics, wallet and other essentials, this is a wonderful vintage purse to have in your wardrobe.

This item is sold from a vintage boutique in Bradenton, FL.
