Vintage 1940s Intricately Beaded Evening Purse – Kiss Lock Chain Strap Handbag

Overview

An elegant 1940s beaded evening purse with intricate silver-toned beadwork, soft ivory accents, and a classic kiss lock closure. The ornate patterning and delicate chain strap give it that old Hollywood after-dark feeling — glamorous, romantic, and just a little ghostly in the best way.

Condition

Fair vintage condition with age-related wear consistent with use and age. Some beads are missing all across the purse body. Portions of the interior lining are beginning to separate and tear at the edges. Hardware retains a lovely aged patina and some spots are more tarnished than others. Please review photos closely for complete condition details.
