Description:

 
An adorable classic vintage wooden box bag from the USA hand made by Ruth Blackledge.  This fantastic creation comprises strips of wood which are woven onto a wooden frame, with a solid lid and bottom.  The bag is glazed and decorated with a decoupage composition of a family of owls, with owl decoration to the front, back and lid.  The glaze is a subtle shade of browns and has a brown velvet ribbon around the top.  The handle is shaped wood and the hinged lid opens to reveal a gorgeous 'smocked' effect fabric lining in a variety of colours with a mirror set into the lid and a label depiciting the makers name.   The bottom of the bag is covered in the same fabric and has four wooden feet to protect it.    Perfect for those wanting a statement bag for a special occasion or to use as a jewellery box or for keepsakes.
