For a little over two centuries, the world of fashion has been graced with the creation of beaded handbags. Vintage beaded handbags are probably the most intricately designed handbags in the world. They are also one of the most expensive due to the amazing workmanship that the bags require. In the 1800’s, beaded bags cost around $5.00 per piece which rose to around $100 in the 1900’s. The bead itself underwent changes and this has been the marker for the age of a vintage beaded handbag. The size of the beads made in the 1800’s was very fine that a square-inch can be filled with about a thousand beads. Bag sizes were generally small, some almost purse-like.

Attached to the bottom layer was usually fringe or a tassel at the center. The middle and largest layer contained the illustrations while the top layer contained a pattern to complete the whole design. For most vintage beaded handbags, a drawstring or a metal clasp closes the bag secure carried by a thin chain for a handle.
