Patricia Smith Moon Bag Tapestry
When eighties handbag designer Patricia Smith created her handmade moon bag purses, the earliest moon bags were made individually, sewn by women with Patricia Smith petit point designs .For anyone who enjoys needlepoint work, this is a labor of love.This raspberry pink vintage leather handbag is a marriage of art deco to sixties illustrator Peter Max. The lacquered flap echoes the sewn design, a trademark of Patricia Smith's moon bags. The lining is a darker raspberry with a 1984 label.The clutch has an attached shoulder strap, easily tucked inside when not in use. Dimensions are 8 1/2" x 6 1/2".
