The outline of the flower is made of matte white beads. The petals are filled with clear glass beads. The flower is surrounded with gold glass seed beads.
The design is only on one side. The back of the coin purse is filled with concentric circles of the gold seed beads.
I don't recall how this little lady came into my life. But she is a little worse for wear. Though most of the beading is intact (note that one little strand of thread by the left hinge), the clasp doesn't work at all. The frame must have gotten a little bent. Though the two knobs of the clasp come close, they don't snap into place. Any coins held in this lady's grasp would soon be spilled on the floor.
Also, she's a dirty little girl on the inside. There are quite a number of stains and a small hole.
But sitting on the shelf among my other gold Ladies, this little lass holds her own in beauty and sparkle.
