Golden Brocade Dragon Triangle Purse

Exotic Bags By Matthea


Today I worked on another 1940s-inspired triangular design. The pictures really don't do the rich gold brocade justice. It really is an awesome print, and the deep gold satin crepe lining matches the deep gold in the dragon design. The self-fabric handle is about 21" long - slips over the shoulder with the bag high up on the chest. There is an interior patch pocket. It closes with a magnetic snap clasp.

The base is around 12" wide coming up to a curved opening around 8" wide. The height is around 8" where the straps meet the sides.

Today I worked with a triangular design that is a shape along the lines of 1940s bags. The handle is longer - about 22" - long enough to slip over your shoulder. The handle is self-fabric with a contrast black sueded fabric strip down the center. The print reads "NEW YORK" "PARIS" "MILAN" "LONDON". The color is a deap teal, the print is black. There is an interior patch divided pocket. It closes with a magnetic snap clasp.

The base is around 12" wide coming up to a curved opening around 9" wide. The height is around 9" where the straps meet the sides.

Brown Dragon Brocade

I had a commission to create a rounded handbag in brown brocade dragon print. I chose a shiny silky brown fabric as the lining. It's both luxurious and functional. It has a zipper close and a patch pocket.
