The bag has no frame — it gathers at the top with a braided dark cord and closes with beaded ball tassels at the cord ends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hand-stitching is visible inside, and the weight of the beads gives it a satisfying density. This kind of piece was made to be used and admired, not locked away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt holds a phone, cards, lipstick, and keys. The drawstring opening is generous enough for daily use. The dark cord wears well with evening black or with the deep blue of the bag itself — either looped over the wrist or carried in the hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Drawstring evening bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEra: 1920s–1940s (Art Deco period)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Fabric with dense glass seed bead embroidery, braided cord handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosure: Drawstring with beaded ball tassels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 18 × 14 × 2 cm (flat)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 154 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarked: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGood · Bead coverage intact overall; minor loose stitching visible in macro areas consistent with age, no missing bead sections, cord handle sound.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Rare Room","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53949389341009,"sku":"RR-0318","price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0846\/6667\/9633\/files\/2026-06-03_13.18.07-1.jpg?v=1780527496","url":"https:\/\/therareroom.co.uk\/products\/vintage-1930s-cobalt-blue-beaded-drawstring-evening-bag-hand-sewn-floral-pouch","provider":"The Rare Room","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
