Jeanne Bernard of Paris Black Suede Coffee Grinder Shaped Handbag

About the Item

This charming figural handbag is shaped like an old fashioned coffee grinder. It's covered in a fine, black suede with details and accents in gold plated brass. The inside of the lid that opens up for access to the main body of the bag has a little mirror attached, and the "hopper dome" on top is a compact with a feathery powder puff and another mirror. There is a little "ground coffee" drawer in the bottom that pulls out to hold your little bits and pieces. It has a woven cord handle with a tassel accent. The Jeanne Bernard figural bags are very delicate and are better suited for display than for carrying. approximate measurements: 3.75" wide x 4.25" deep x 4.25" high, (10.5” high including handle) Please contact us if you have any questions.

A rare hand coloured celluloid and silk velvet 'rose' handbag, France, 1920s.
Located in Greyabbey, County Down
A real collector's piece, and conversation point, this highly imaginative and charming handbag design is a rarity, and is wonderful to use and wear. The centre of the 'rose' pulls to one side, releasing the catch, hence allowing the bag to open. The top is made from delicately hand curled 'petals' of coloured celluloid, the actual frame in dark green is robust and strong, with stronger green leaves, underlying the 'bloom'. The bag is made from mole brown silk velvet, with a black 'ruffled' trim highlight. Many bakelite and celluloid bags...
