Round Purse

My most primitive design, which I rather emphatically don't like any more; however, we may as well preserve the archaeological record and give it a mention.  I actually did three purses in this style: one galvanized, one aluminum, and one galvanized with a bronze stripe.  This is the galvanized one.  The pouch is about five inches tall, and it features a large triangular flap with a bead on the end (that's what the red blob is).

Rings:
