Simone Handbag Museum
Seoul, South Korea

The black silk of this bag acts as a simple but dramatic foil for its embroidered decoration. On one side delicate polychrome embroidery in cotton and metal thread figures a stylized floral pattern. The initials E.L., probably belonging to either the maker or owner, are embroidered on the other.
