Evening bag c. 1925

This small, beaded evening bag, crafted around 1925 by Maria Likarz, showcases the artist's talent for intricate detail and geometric design. The vibrant orange background is adorned with a repeating motif of black, white, and silver beads, creating a dynamic and playful polka dot pattern. The bag's diminutive size, just 7 1/2 by 5 1/2 inches, highlights its delicate nature and its intended use as a fashionable accessory for women of the era. Likarz's keen eye for color and texture, evident in this piece, underscores her artistic approach and her contributions to the world of art deco design.
