White Persephone Moire Handbag

The perfect & bridal handbag and based on a 1940's pattern. The shapely purse is made from moiré taffeta poly cotton, which supplies a smoky, mystical base for the Persephone crochet embellishment. Inspired by the myth of Persephone & Hades, first flowers & skulls were individually crocheted. Then the flowers are hand beaded to imitate the decadence of nature. The skull and flowers are carefully arranged and hand sewn together to create a harmonious arrangement. The combination of skulls and flowers signify the Persephone's dual role as goddess of spring and the queen of the underworld. Due to the hand-crafted techniques used to create each bag,  no two are alike.

The bag measures 15"x15" with 2 inner pockets to hold cell phones or items like keys. This bag is also available in black.
