Hi everyone and good afternoon,
Ive been trying to date these purses,one i think is a Victorian missers purse and the other two i think could be a little eariler?
The little green and red stripe one is only 2"wide and 6" long including the steel beads
The cream one is petite point stitching but it reminds me of a Regency style,but im really not sure?

Yes, the blue one with the cut steel beads and rings is definitely a miser's purse. The little red and green one looks like a victorian change purse to me.

The floral one appears to have stunning bead work and does look early. I haven't often run across a bag in this shape.

I would guess it may well be a little earlier than Victorian, perhaps 1850s.

Nice trio of early bags here!
