This net purse originally belonged to the donor's grandmother, and appears to be home made. It consists of small coloured beads, pale blue and white. There are two rings round the purse, one gold coloured and one silver, with pendants at each end, also one gold and one silver. It is thought to date from the early nineteenth century.
