Antique Drawstring Bag from Shoe Strings

---

Wonderful drawstring pouch for day or evening from the Depression era. This bag wasn't made on a shoe string. This bag was made FROM shoe strings. The bag's basic material is shoe strings! Carefully and intricately knotted! See what looks like a bugle bead fringe dangling from the bag's neck? Those aren't beads-- those are the plastic ends of the shoestrings! The shoe string bag hangs from the foundation bag and lining, a second drawstring bag of rich brown silk broadcloth, nicely pleated at the top. The pouch portion of the bag measures 8 1/2" wide at the base by 7" high. Absolutely mint condition. Perhaps never carried. (Marked down from $48.00.)
