EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning beaded purse, created by Jessie M. Benge around 1936, is a captivating example of American decorative arts from the 1930s and 1940s. The purse, which measures approximately 12 inches long and 9 inches wide, is intricately adorned with multicolored beads in various shapes and sizes, creating a mesmerizing pattern that covers the entire surface. The beading technique is a testament to Benge's skillful hand and attention to detail, with each bead meticulously sewn onto the purse's watercolor and graphite on paperboard base. Benge's beaded purse is a vibrant and colorful accessory that reflects the fashion trends of the era. The use of beads for clothing and accessories was popular during the 1930s and 1940s, and this purse would have been a cherished possession for a woman during that time. The purse's intricate beadwork and decorative design would have added a touch of elegance and sophistication to any outfit. Jessie M. Benge was a skilled artist and craftswoman, and her beaded purse is a testament to her artistic abilities. The purse is currently housed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C., as part of the Index of American Design, a collection that documents American decorative arts and popular culture from the Colonial period through the 1940s. This purse is not only a beautiful work of art but also an important historical artifact that provides insight into American fashion and culture during the 1930s and 1940s.
