Description

Embroidered and Beaded Handbag from Southern Nepal!

With a middle panel that reminds one of angel’s wings, this pink themed bag will be a treasure for the one who owns it. The designs are ages old and traditionally painted on the outside of a house as preparation for the New Year festivals. Only women can paint the house, and it is empowering for the Mithila women of Southern Nepal to hand this tradition down from one generation to the next. This beautiful bag is 12”x12” when closed, and has 3 zippered compartments, an adjustable shoulder strap and sturdy Velcro closures for the main panel. Start the New Year off right with this lovely piece of history!
