Black and Yellow Corde Bag

Black and Yellow Corde Bag. 1940s. Maker: Genuine Corde Creation. Fabulous, unusual 100 percent rayon Corde small corded fabric purse in black and yellow. Goldtone twist lock. Two inner pockets; one that zips.

I have a lot of Corde bags, but what makes this one unusual is the blend of yellow and black. It’s a beautiful bag, with the swirls creating a multi-dimensional optical illusion.

BONUS! Check it out. This is my Midas of Miami wicker fish purse admiring itself in a note card, with photo by the incredible Tina Carlson. We will have note card sets of her amazing artistic series, The Secret Life of Purses, available for purchase soon.
