Alice Ball - handbag

Yellow embossed croc 100% leather is a great bag to accept compliments on. It's 2 bags in one the exterior skirt of the bag measures 17" X 14". Which covers over a 13" X 12" under bag, how cool is that? With one zipper for closure of a fully lined bag with 2 interior pockets. The straps that hold this awesome leather bag. Are joined together with a horn from Venezuela and what a statement it makes. This is as usual a one of a kind. For a one of a kind woman. That's named in honor of a one of a kind black female inventor Alive Ball.

Alice Augusta Ball (July 24 , 1892 – December 31, 1916) was a Black chemist who developed the first injectable treatment for leprosy, then known as Hansen's disease. Her work, which involved synthesizing ethyl esters from chaulmoogra oil, was the most effective treatment until the 1940s. She became the first African American woman to teach chemistry at the College of Hawaii, where she received a scholarship.
