Abstract patterns in acid colours decorate this unusually brightly beaded bag. Beaded bags from this period tend to be in more muted colours featuring floral motifs or picturesque scenes. The chain-link handle of the bag with the ring at its top indicates that it could also be worn hung from a belt.
