Collection MHS (unaccessioned) Textile
Description Multi-coloured coin purse. Materials: enamelled metal, silk, leather, suede. Colour: Mauve, gold, mustard, beige, cream. Inside are multi-pockets and a 10 cm by 10 cm mirror. Lining is beige corded silk. Purse has a leather strap.

25/03/2008: Textile manager (Pam Saunders) thinks the purse catalogued as 2005.028.0021 is this purse, but Registrar (Jenny Pierson) disagrees. This purse has a mirror and no money and although Pam says the money would have been removed and given to the museum, when Wyn Hunt catalogued the purse from 2005.028.0021 she made no mention of a mirror and knowing Wyn at that time I don't believe she would have itemized the money in the purse and not included the mirror.
