This gorgeous piece was made from 100 year old Odd Fellows regalia collars embroidered with dimensional silver coil wire. I over beaded it. Leather is from an old bomber jacket and closed with a Deco era buckle. Strap is round 4 strand braiding in 2 colors. Pretty great!
I made this beautiful Deco style handbag from deep burgundy velveteen with 20's style beaded motif and brass Deco frame. The tassel is 100 years old brass.
