Pair of vintage hand-beaded evening purses, both in shades of white or ivory. One purse features a metal kiss-lock closure, cream satin lining with an interior pocket, and a scalloped Art Deco-inspired design on the front. The other is a smaller envelope-style clutch with an allover circular beaded motif, snap closure, and a "Made in France" tag inside. Both purses are in good condition with beading intact with some minor discoloration consistent with age. See photos for additional details.
