Red Deerskin purse with beading / Sterling Silver Buffalo closure OOAK
The fifth picture set is an AI rendering of this purse. It is accurate for the style but the beading does not reflect the true beading on the purse. It is included to give you an idea of how the purse will hang and look when in use. For the true beading, see the original photographs included here.
This is a great sized purse. The red is a deep red, but shows up lighter in the pictures and will probably vary by browser.
8" wide by 9" long with a 1 1/2 gusset. The strap is 30" long and fits nicely under the arm.
The purse is handlaced in spanish lacing and some flat lacing.
There is a rough edged pocket under the flap for carrying more items. The lacings have been beaded with Bali sterling silver, Miyuki glass beads, Czech glass beads and handpainted glass beads.
The closure is with a magnetic snap. The Sterling Silver buffalo was handmade by a navajo silversmith. This is actually a brooch that can be taken off and worn seperately, if desired.
The purse is shipped free Priority Mail and includes a care kit for cleaning and conditioning your purse.
If you would like a custom made purse let me know and I can send you the deerskin colors I have available.
I use rough edges and I hand lace all my purses so the design of a purse is basically size, flat or with gusset and strap length. I also offer color choices on beads to be used on any fringe or strings on the purse.
I can also offer you a choice of closure style. Example: sterling silver pin, decorative button, deer horn, large coral piece or no decorative piece.
