Vintage Hand Made Miniature Bucket Bag Purse Suede Leather & Fur

These little purses were handmade in the 70's in the Southwest, where I grew up. They are made from suede leather and have rabbit fur trim. Drawstrings can be untied and adjusted (retied) to make the strap(s) longer or shorter to suit your needs. They would make cute favors or party gifts, or just use them as a small wrist bag for your smaller items. I don't know what metal the rings and grommets are, but they give it a Western flair. They are not all bright and some show tarnish or oxidation.
Bags are all one-of-a-kind and measure approximately 4" - 4 1/2" high X 3" - 3 1/2" in diameter. Strap length varies by how you adjust them. For wrist, straps (four point) are approximately 5 1/2" - 8" long. For shoulder, (two point) straps are approximately 11" - 12" long. Colors vary. There is a lining on some of the straps (made from ? paper?) On some it is gone or was never put on. On others it's fairly intact and some have it beginning to tatter or peel off. I don't know the purpose of the lining as the suede straps seem fine by themselves. I also have a few that show a little damage or that need to be resewn. Those can be bought as leather/suede material for crafts. Each purse is made from 10 - 12 patches of different colored suede sewn together.
