Octagonal Flapper Bag, France, 1920s

This bag dates back to the roaring twenties and is a splendid example of the fashion and style of the time. Flapper bags were very popular with modern women of the era and reflected the emerging freedom and self-confidence of women.

The octagonal cut and rich embellishment make this bag a true work of art. The white pearls and hanging glass beads give it an elegant and glamorous touch that was typical of evening wear at the time. The green stone on the clasp adds an extra touch of luxury.
The silk lining inside the bag provides a soft and luxurious feel, while the practical chain as a carrying handle does not neglect functionality. Despite a few minor flaws, such as the missing pearl threads and stains on the inside, this bag remains an impressive piece of fashion history.
