Historical Bags & Reticules

Carry your essentials in period style with our Historical Bags & Reticules collection. Before the modern handbag, ladies and gentlemen of history carried their belongings in beautifully crafted pouches, reticules, and patch pockets — each one a miniature work of art.

  • Regency drawstring reticules in beaded silk and embroidered fabric
  • Victorian jet-beaded and velvet evening bags and chatelaines
  • 18th-century embroidered patch pockets and decorative purses
  • Medieval hanging belt pouches and pomander bags
  • Edwardian and 1920s beaded evening purses and clutches

Perfect for completing Regency, Victorian, Georgian, and medieval period costumes, historical balls, and tea party looks where a modern bag simply won't do.
