This little beaded bag is 8½" x 5 ½ and has a place to attach a chain (but no chain came with it). The inside is not as clean as the others but it is in good shape. It is covered in beads, mostly white or seed pearls. There are some glass beads creating floral designs; in the center of flowers are single pearl beads.
The label inside says "DeLiLL " hand made in Japan.
Does anyone know anything about this maker? How old the bag might be? and whether these are real pearls?
Thanks!
My mind said the same thing with this one, too ~ JAPAN. [;>)
Those are all glass seed beads. They are 'pearlized' glass. Pretty bag! 1950's. Google Delill - they were a HUGE maker of bags. I LOVE their pastel bags. Go to ebay, too.
Thanks Celiene -- the Delill pastel bags are lovely. Thanks for the love Nevada, Aura and Racer4Four
