Antique beaded purse frame with hand painted inset on gold lace evening purse

The most important part of this bag is the magnificent Antique beaded handle . Dating from around 1940 the beading is exquisite in shades of gold pink and white . What is special is it has a hand painted inset in the centre and made in France .
I have remade the purse in french gold lace hand beaded with pearls and stretched over ivory satin . The fringing on the end is vintage which I found in the Antique market in Clignancourt in Paris . The sides are also finished in vintage gold braid .
The interior of the bag is made in matching satin and finished with vintage ribbon and hand crochet flowers .
A vintage Limoges brooch lies beneath the handle and on the sides are tiny Venetian beads .
