Original BLACK CAT VAMPIRE Cigar Box Purse, Hand Painted by FEDERICO

I had lots of fun creating this cigar box purse. On one side I've painted a black vampire cat in acrylics on a canvas panel and the other side has been decoupaged with actual antique Victorian papers and a fashion print, new papers, and paper Dresden trim. The tassel or purse charm has various beads including semi-precious stones and an antique skeleton key.

The inside is fully lined with black suede-cloth and deep red velvet fabric, gathered and anchored in place with an antique Art Deco brooch.

This purse will be available at a MUCH later date on eBay; I'm hoping to submit it to a popular magazine publication.
