This is an original Nakshi Kantha hand-stitched quilted purse from Bangladesh.  It is an artistry that uses playful designs and colors with random stitches in the background to add wonderful texture to a piece.  This traditional textile art was almost lost but was revived as a way to bring much need work to the impoverished women in rural Bangladesh. Here, the art form is incorporated into a remarkable 8" X 6-1/4" purse with vibrant colors and eye-catching motifs.  The zippered purse is fully lined in solid red material and has a front red zippered pocket (also lined). Wonderful craftsmanship.  USPS Ground Advantage shipping.
