Evening Handbag Embroidered with Roses from India, "Wine and Roses"

Colored like a delectable red wine and embroidered with interweaving black and scarlet roses, this fabulous evening handbag is another hit from Sumita Ghosh of India, who was inspired by traditional Kashmiri craftsmanship. The juxtaposition of the angled, sharp leaves against the demurely curved roses and swirling stems creates an image that is simple in concept but fascinatingly complex in execution. The cotton-lined interior features a zipper pocket, and the handbag itself can be closed with a zipper. Take the smooth mahogany wood handles, and you'll be ready to grace any venue.
