Background Note
Woven wood handbag boxes and purse caddies emerged as popular fashion accessories during the mid-20th century. Craftmakers and boutique brands often decorated the exterior wood surfaces with decoupage or hand-painted floral motifs while outfitting the interior with fabric linings and compact vanity mirrors. These durable wooden handbags combined folk art aesthetics with practical everyday storage for cosmetics and personal items.
