Antique Appliqué Embroidered Pina Cloth Bag: C1930 Vietnam

Item Details.
Dating from the 1920s Art Deco era, this ever so pretty hand embroidered and appliquéd hand bag, we think this is from Vietnam, and has been made from fine handwoven pina cloth - which is made from pineapple fibre.

Worked in beautifully soft pastel colours the bag has a central appliqéd motif of a lantern which has pale yellow stumpwork padded grapes hanging on either side, this is bordered with wonderful three dimensional embroidered flowers.

Fully lined in pina cloth which has a natural stiffness and which holds its body. We think this is the perfect accessory for a summer wedding or party.

Measurements:
Bag: 29cm wide x 24cm tall
handles: 11 cm

Condition.
The bag is in very good, usable condition. It has an overall patina of age as you would expect in an antique bag from this era.
