This is a vintage (1950's), navy blue leather/leather lined Kelly-style purse that I hand painted/embellished using the Tromp L'oiel method of painting. The purse is in MINT condition to begin with. I wanted to do something different- so I decided to try to make it look like there was hole torn in the purse . . .allowing you and others to "view" the contents of the inside of the bag. I used several dimensional mediums (ones that hold their shape) to get the effect I wanted. As you can see by the pictures- there is a pair of sunglasses, Pez, keys, an open and somewhat wayward lipstick (the color of the lipstick is on other items in the "viewing hole")- among other various "toss-it-in-ones-purse" things. There is even a strand of pink knotted "pearls" that has made it's way out of the hole and over the back of the purse .

. .ending with a gold-tone clasp. This purse is pure fun- and it will assuredly add pizzazz and funk to anything you choose to wear it with. And what a GREAT conversation piece! The measurements are 10" across, 8" high, 3" wide shut, and 7" wide open. There is approximately 6" of room from the top of the purse to the underside of the handle. This can be worn as a comfortably "snug" baquette by most. The purse is coated with my "secret" glaze- so if you need to wipe it clean- you will not harm the purse. All of my hand painted/embellished purses come with care instructions. Please remember- all of my hand painted/embellished bags are one-of-a-kind, so I need several weeks to two months notice if you see one you like and it's not the original piece. The ones I have up by now are available- but they tend to go quick once people find them. Don't forget- they make great gifts and I do special orders with a 25% deposit.
