Shared Beauty: Eastern Rugs & Western Purses

4000 Michigan Road, Indianapolis
(0 ratings)

Though beaded purses were fashionable through the 19th and early 20th centuries, they became extremely popular in the 1920s as an integral part of the flapper-era costumes. A wide variety of patterns were depicted on these bags, including flowers, trees, birds, animals, landscapes and other popular motifs. However, some of the most fashionable designs were copied from the patterns of Persian, Turkish, Caucasian and Indian carpets and textiles. In this exhibition, beaded bags will be displayed alongside rugs with similar patterns.
