    Description

    These pretty purses have age damage so please see my photos. Also feel free to ask if you want to see something else since I am limited on photos.
    The box purse shown in my 2nd to 6th photos is missing its handles. There are long threads still at the corners tucked inside. The purse is about 4 1/4 inches long, 3 inches wide and about 3 1/4 inches deep. It is lined with fabric. One corner of the lid looks like it is missing a few beads but overall the beading on this one is in good condition. (besides the handles)  There is blue fabric on the ends. One side has a couple holes which you can see in my 4th photo. The other end does not have any holes and you can see that good end in my 2nd photo. My 5th photo shows the front of the purse. There is a wear spot in the velvet. The back side is in better condition. My 3rd photo shows the top. On the right side you can see the fuzz worn off of the velvet. There are loops of beads that hang off the bottom.
    The purse shown in my 7th to 9th photo is about 4 1/4 inches long at the bottom. It is about 1 1/2 inches wide and 2 1/2 inches deep. The biggest flaw with this one is it is very threadbare and you can see the cardboard structure. There are a few small spots where it looks like
    some
    beads are missing. It has a beaded handle which you can see in the first photo. It has a hook and eye closure and it is lined in fabric.
    The small purse shown in my last 3 photos is 3 inches long at the bottom. It is about 3/4 inches wide and 2 inches deep. There are a few spots where beads are missing
    along
    the edges.  The fabric has some spots and the inside lining fabric looks dirty. It has a hook and eye closure.
    I am not an expert on these types of items so it is possible that I am wrong about the tribal affiliation.
