Description

Set of three hand beaded embroideries featuring geometric designs. One is orange and blue with a central diamond motif; another is pink and blue with a green arrow; the third is pink in blue with a more symetrical design. They are each constructed on a black tulle base with colourful short and long glass beads, rhinestones, glass cabochons, metallic gold and silver thread, and colourful silk thread.

These decorative elements were often used to embellish clothing or accessories during the Art Deco period.
