Frequently actors and background artists alike need to carry personal articles with them on set. What better way to do that than with a lovely Victorian purse? Each of these can accomodate a pair of eyeglasses, or a wristwatch, or even a small cell-phone (turned off of course!). Things a modern lady needs, but which shouldn't be seen in a period show. If you require some ladies purses for your production contact Easel Incorporated to order unique hand-crafted Victorian purses that are suitable, in the colour or style that you need.
