The pomegranate is a multicultural symbol for prosperity, fruitfulness, abundance, and fertility. It is often cited as a metaphor for a woman’s mind—many jeweled thoughts tucked away in hidden chambers. This elegant purse, perfect for carrying your own treasures, is adorned with an image of a pomegranate, worked in tapestry crochet.
