Vintage Black Fabric Evening Bag with Rhinestone Floral Brooch and Matching Coin Purse

This item is a vintage black fabric evening bag, likely made from silk or a similar finely woven textile, given its subtle sheen and pliable drape. The bag features a structured, yet soft, 'pouch' style body, gathered at the frame to create a ruched or pleated effect. Its primary color is a deep, matte black, contrasting with the light beige or champagne-colored ruched satin lining visible when the bag is open. The frame of the bag appears to be a silver-toned metal, possibly chrome or nickel, with a clasp mechanism at the top. A distinct and ornate oval-shaped brooch or decorative element is affixed to the frame at the center of the opening. This embellishment showcases an off-white or light background with a delicately painted floral motif, specifically a rose in shades of pink and green, encircled by what appear to be small, clear rhinestones or paste gems. The bag has a slender, flat strap made from the same black fabric as the main body, attached with small metal rings, suggesting it could be carried as a shoulder bag or clutch. The strap shows some signs of wear, particularly a slight compression or flattening in areas, indicative of use. The interior lining of the main bag is visibly creased and shows some minor discoloration, consistent with age and use. Accompanying the bag is a smaller, matching coin purse or card holder, also in a light beige or champagne satin, with a small, brass-toned metal clasp. The coin purse's interior shows some marks or stains. The overall condition suggests a beloved, used item from the mid-20th century, possibly 1940s to 1960s, a period when such ornate evening bags with delicate details were popular. The craftsmanship, particularly the detailed floral brooch and gathered fabric, suggests a high-quality accessory for formal wear.
