Vintage 60s Cut Velvet Handbag Geometric Chenille Purse JR

This striking vintage 60s cut velvet handbag was produced by Julius Resnick Inc., using their JR trademark, a major American handbag manufacturer founded in 1933 in Newark, New Jersey. The company rose to national prominence through the 1950s and 60s, known for quality construction and fashionable materials. This vintage 60s cut velvet handbag likely dates to the late 1960s or early 1970s, based on its bold palette and abstract chenille pattern.

The purse features a soft cut velvet chenille front and back in a vivid geometric motif of ochre, black, orange, and tan. It has a structured form with sturdy double black vinyl handles looped through gold-tone grommets - the handle can be pulled through so as to become a single shoulder strap. The top closes securely with a metal zip and opens to reveal a black faille interior stamped in gold with the JR logo.
