Wicker Frog Purse. 1950s/'60s. Maker: Midas of Miami. Turquoise velvet fabric and jewels on the back. Glitter glue accent stripes. Marble eyes. Velvet bow tie. Gold and white leather strap. Elastic closure. Lined in mod fabric. I am so excited to share this new acquisition with you! My wonderful friend and partner in vintage, Wendy (yep, that’s her name, too), gifted me with this beauty. I believe this might complete my set of Midas wicker figurals, as I also have the elephant, donkey, poodle, fish, monkey... and I think that’s it. But I might have to go upstairs to check…
