The Details...
This clutch bag is detailed in its entirety with beadwork. It's detailed with white microbeads which surround circular patterns created from pale pink, grey and blue microbeads. The bag is lined with a cream cotton and features one large internal compartments and one flap pocket. The bag fastens with a metal kiss clasp and has a small strap on the reverse. When I sourced this bag, an old raffle ticket and dance ticket were found inside. I have left them with the piece. The bag features an internal label that reads 'Made in Belgium'. The bag measures 13cm x 10cm x 3cm.

The jewellery within the Gemma Redmond Vintage collection has survived to this day because it has been well cared for throughout its lifetime. It is important to continue to care for the jewellery that you buy from us to ensure its continued preservation. Here are some suggestions:
- Be sure to store your jewellery within the boxes that we provide to ensure that it is protected. This is especially important when travelling with your pieces.
- Try not to get perfume or hairspray on your items. These liquids can damage the materials that our jewellery is made from.
- Try not to drop your jewellery or catch your jewellery against hard surfaces. If this happens over time, the findings and fixings can loosen and wear.
- Try not to get your jewellery wet. Some costume jewellery manufacturers utilised water soluble glue in the making of their pieces. Getting your jewellery wet could cause rhinestones and other details to fall away over time.
- If you wish to clean your jewellery, use a soft polishing cloth or a soft brush.
