Faux Gem Encrusted Box Bag. 1950s. Midas of Miami. Gorgeous
box purse covered in the tiniest of silver seed beads, pastel colored faux
gems, shells, and faux pearls. Silver rope trim. Milky white Lucite top and
clear Lucite handle and clasp. Four clear round feet. Lined in white fabric.
This one is an oldie! The tag is different from most Midas
bags in that in addition to it saying “An Original Midas of Miami,” it also
says “Handicrafts Inc. – Miami 47, Florida.” Also, Midas is mostly known for
its wicker purses with signature woven golden rope handles.
While I love them all, this one is definitely a standout!
