Whimsy Watch Pocket Black Floral
Whimsy Watch Pocket Black Floral
Add this striking Black Floral Whimsy Watch Pocket to your collection! The crafter made floral designs with White and Clear Seed Beads on a Black Velveteen background. White Seed Bead edge beading outlines both pieces. The crafter used cardboard for the backing. Cream colored Silk fabric once covered the back, but most of it has fallen off. You will see some bead loss along the edges. The stitching that holds the front to the back has come apart on the left side.This Beaded Watch Pocket Whimsy is a classic example of a Beaded Whimsy tourist souvenir. Native American crafters in the border regions between Canada and the United States at the turn of the 20th century created many of these whimsies for the tourist trade. This whimsy comes in the shape of a wall pocket that holds your pocket watch.
This Watch Pocket measures 8" tall x 5" at the widest point.
