Ed B. Robinson White and Gold Beaded Evening Bag

$135.00

Item# 398

Dimensions: 8 inches wide

This exquisite Ed B. Robinson evening bag nade in France is a vintage masterpiece of mid-20th-century craftsmanship, likely from the 1950s. Thr company produced high-quality hand-beaded bags, many handmade in Europe (such as France or Belgium).

The bag showcases a classic silhouette with a generous, rounded pouch shape that gently tapers toward the base, creating an elegant, voluminous profile. Its body is meticulously covered in delicate seed beads (micro glass beads) in a soft, neutral pale gray tone, forming a luxurious, shimmering surface. Horizontal bands of gold beads create subtle, wave-like or ribbed patterns across the surface, adding texture and subtle opulence without overwhelming the understated palette.

The standout feature is an ornate gold tone metal frame with an intricate beaded design incorporating swirling motifs and diamante inserts. A central circular medallion or rosette detail crowns the clasp, enhancing its Art Deco-inspired sophistication. A chain strap in matching gold-tone metal arcs gracefully upward, allowing it to be carried as a clutch or over the wrist/shoulder.

This piece embodies timeless evening glamour: intricate beadwork, refined proportions, and heirloom-quality construction that highlights Ed Robinson’s reputation for collectible, sparkling accessories. A few gold beads are missing on the back.

About This Item

Many of the beaded bags in the collection are reminiscent of those that my very elegant mother owned, some purchased on unforgettable trips together to Paris. George Baring bags are particularly meaningful to me because I knew the elegant Monsieur Baring well through those visits with my mother and later visits on my own. These bags tell me familiar stories and bring back wonderful memories. I hope that any number of my items do that for my customers.
