Items inspired by the new exhibit "Our Face to the World: The Clothing of James and Elizabeth Monroe."
Tote Bag and Silk Scarf
The design of the tote bag and scarf seen here features a close-up of the beautiful floral brocade pattern of Elizabeth Monroe’s wedding gown.
The bag is made of canvas with an interior fabric lining and canvas straps. It is the perfect size for carrying books, binders, notebooks, etc.
The matching silk scarf can be worn around the neck and shoulders. It can also be used as a table runner or as a drape over a piece of furniture.
The beautiful fabric of both items will add a touch of spring to your home or wardrobe!
The tote bag retails for $49.95.
