The Raven theme is presented here on the Carpet Bag. This lovely handbag has two exterior semi-circular pockets that hold items that are needed on the fly, and the inside lining is just perfect for the woman who likes organization! The story of the Raven comes from I Kings 17:1-6 where the prophet Elijah flees from the evil King Ahab to the brook of Cherith. It was here that the ravens fed Elijah "bread and meat in the morning, and bread and meat in the evening", reminder of God's providence and hope. This handbag sold at a silent auction for a fundraiser in Cranbury, NJ.
The back of the Raven has crisp, clean lines, in a gradation of color from ivory to a rich gold taffeta. The buttons are new Vogue replicas. The gold on the front panel and sides are silk.
