Re: [h-cost] Looking for 15th century replica frame-opening style purse
Thank you, that is it exactly! I don't know the name for it either, so I was trying to describe as bet I could. From what I've seen of them, not having looked at any closely. It has to have a lid because my husband loses everything.

[h-cost] Looking for 15th century replica frame-opening style purse
Greetings, I'm looking for a 15th century replica frame-opening style purse. It has a metal circular opening (with a hinged lid) that the leather pouch hangs from, in case you don't know what I mean by frame. I'm not sure what the actual name of that type of purse would be. Does anyone know where I can purchase such an item? I have yet to turn up a merchant who sells them. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Bjarne, Thanks. They aren't quite what I'm looking for. I have seen people walking around events wearing the type of purse I'm looking for so I know that someone has made them, I'm just not sure who.

Re: [h-cost] Looking for 15th century replica frame-opening style purse
Another resource: flea markets or antique sales. This style was used again in the 19 century and appears in the 1920s and 1930s. This style of top often outlived the fabric/leather purse/pocket that would have been attached. I have also seen a modified top used for an oldfashioned ice pack.

Re: [h-cost] Looking for 15th century replica frame-opening style purse
I think everyone's looking at frame as a generic type that has never changed. That's not so. Most German Ren purses are suspended from a single point in the middle, not from a chain anchored at two points. Not all, obviously, since the one at the bottom of this page clearly has two anchor points for a chair. But that's not the style one commonly sees in the woodcuts. What's being asked for is (or should be)something like this http://www.curiousfrau.com/Art_Research/pouches.htm I don't know anyone who makes them, although something similar can be built on with a plain ring.

It's good to look at the pictures and start to see what's there is not what you expect. One of my favorite resources is J.R. Hale's Artists Warfare in the Renaissance. ISBN-13: 978-0300048407 http://www.amazon.com/Artists-Warfare-Renaissance-J-Hale/dp/0300048408 It's both an art book and a history book, and the details even in the large scenes are amazing. Excellent sources for both German and Italian soldiers and their women, plus nobles and some pageant stuff.

RE: [h-cost] Looking for 15th century replica frame-opening style purse
I asked the woman who has one. She made hers using 2 metal embroidery frames. She attached them together with a lightweight hinge, which she sewed on. I think she covered the frames first, then sewed on the hinge. Hope this helps. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Danielle Nunn-Weinberg Sent: Thursday, May 17, 2007 12:15 AM To: Historical Costume Subject: [h-cost] Looking for 15th century replica frame-opening style purse Greetings, I'm looking for a 15th century replica frame-opening style purse.

Another place to try is www.rockettsforge.com He has lots of period things, plus he can make something if you don't see it on his site. He is very nice, does good work and his things are excellent quality. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Danielle Nunn-Weinberg Sent: Thursday, May 17, 2007 12:15 AM To: Historical Costume Subject: [h-cost] Looking for 15th century replica frame-opening style purse Greetings, I'm looking for a 15th century replica frame-opening style purse.
