A cloth purse covered with glass beads sewn into floral patterns above a scene with a building. The beading has a coppery red top border with little green flowers above an off-white field with large orange, pink and blue flowers with green leaves. At the bottom is another coppery red field with a scene of a blue building with a brown and white tower, perhaps a church or fort, flanked by tall trees and possibly a grape arbor. Trailing beeded fringe in dark turquoise blue and black hangs from the bottom of the bag and a bright orange ribbon is the handle.
