Nuno felt purse/pouch with vintage silks. Christmas gift


This is a very useful purse pouch made from handmade felt and antique and vintage silk fabrics. Because the silks were felted into the merino wool fibres they have shrunk and have given this new fabric a wonderful texture.

Vintage bugle and square cut beads have been added as further decoration. It fastens with a large antique press stud.





 This is a very useful purse pouch. Ideal as a glasses case. Wonderful Christmas gift .

 Measures - 16.5cms wide x 10cms (6.5" x 4") when closed.
