1950s Beaded Tapestry Convertible Evening Clutch Bag
Vintage Beaded Tapestry Evening Bag
This vintage Artel evening bag, made in Hong Kong, is a timeless piece with delicate floral tapestry and intricate beadwork throughout. Its classic kiss-lock closure and polished gold hardware reflect the attention to detail and craftsmanship of the era. The bag also features a small interior mirror pocket, a thoughtful touch that adds both charm and practicality. The long gold chainlink handle can be doubled for shoulder wear or tucked away to transform it into a clutch, offering versatility for any occasion. Aside from a few minor beads undone, it is in great vintage condition.
Styling this bag today is simple and effortless. Pair it with a modern dress for evening events, or use it to elevate tailored separates or even jeans and a blouse. Its structured shape flatters most body types, keeping proportions balanced whether worn over the shoulder or carried as a clutch. The tapestry fabric adds texture and interest, while the beadwork brings subtle sparkle without feeling overdone.
This is a one-of-a-kind accessory that combines vintage charm with practicality.

Fit:
Prior to buying, please take your measurements or the measurements of a similar garment that fits you well. We take great care in taking all the measurements needed to ensure that it is the right size and fit for you.
When a garment is shown on a model, their measurements are listed to give an idea of how it will fit you.
All measurements are taken when the fabric is not stretched, though we will also give the extra inches when it is stretched (for example, if a range of measurements is listed, it is because the fabric may stretch to encompass multiple sizes).
All descriptions are very meticulously written and any imperfections on the clothing item are listed.
