"Purse" or "purse" hands "or" pockets "
The term "wallet" was originally called a small bag to hold a coin. In English English, it is still used to refer a small coin bag. "Handbags" are larger accessories that store objects outside of currency, such as personal belongings. American English usually uses the term wallet and handbag in turn. The term bag began to appear in the early 1900s. Initially, it was most often used to refer men's handbags. Women's bags grew bigger and more complex during this period, and the term was attached to the accessory.
The verb "for the handbag" comes from the custom of British prime minister Margaret Thatcher to pull pieces of paper out of her handbag at meetings and read aloud the comments she wrote to them. The more common verb meaning "cruel treat" came to symbolize the whole style of Thatcher's rule. Julian Critchley, one of Tory's greatest backbench critics, once said, "Margaret Thatcher and her handbag are the same as Winston Churchill and her cigar."

Origin of modern
Early modern Europeans wore purses for one purpose: carrying coins. The wallet is made of soft cloth or leather and worn by men as often as women; Scottish sporrants are the survival of this custom. In the 17th century, young girls were taught embroidery as a necessary skill to marry; this also helps them make a very beautiful bag. At the end of the 18th century, fashion in Europe moved towards a slim form for this accessory, inspired by the silhouette of Ancient Greece and Rome. Women want wallets that will not be big or not tidy in appearance, so reticules are designed. Reticules are made of fine fabrics like silk and velvet, which are carried with wrist straps. First became popular in France, they crossed over to England, where they were known as "indispensable". However, men do not adopt this trend. They use wallets and pouches, which became popular in men's trousers.
Modern wallets, clutches, pouches or handbags appeared in Britain during the Industrial Revolution, partly due to increased travel by train. In 1841, Doncaster industrialist and confectionary Samuel Parkinson (from butterscotch fame) ordered a set of traveling cases and crates, and pressed a traveling bag or bag for details of his wife after realizing that his wallet was too small and made of material that would not hold travel. He determined that he wanted various bags for his wife, with varying sizes for various occasions and requested that they be made from the same leather used for the case and the trunk to distinguish them from commonly recognizable rugs and other travelers' fabrics. bags used by popular class members. H. J. Cave (London) requires and produces the first modern set of modern handbags, as we will recognize today, including clutch and tote (referred to as 'ladies travel case'). It is now on display at the Museum of Bags and Wallets in Amsterdam. H. J. Cave does continue to sell and advertise bags, but many critics say that women do not need it and bags with such size and heavy material will 'break the backs of women'. H. J. Cave no longer promotes bags after 1865, concentrating on the stalks only, although they continue to make weird bags for royalty, celebrities or to celebrate special occasions, Queen 2012 Diamond Jubilee becomes the most recent. However, H.J. Cave re-produced handbags in 2010.
20th century
During the 1940s, the rationing of textiles for World War II led to the manufacture of bags made in materials such as raffia or the linkage of the yarn. Some women string their own small bags from commercial patterns during this period.
man's bag
The oldest known purse dates back more than 5000 years, and is a pouch worn by a man, ÃÆ' â ⬠"tzi Iceman. The man once brought a coin purse. In early modern Europe, when women's fashion moved in the direction of using small decorative wallets - which evolved into bags - men's mode moved in the other direction. Men's trousers replaced male buttocks during the 18th and 19th centuries, and the pockets were inserted in loose and heavy materials. This allows men to keep carrying coins, and then paper currency, in small leather wallets. Men's pockets abound in nineteenth and twentieth century pants and coats, to carry an ever-increasing number of items, such as pipes, matches, folding knives, etc., and they are often fixed by their wives. Women, on the other hand, have shown strong demand for larger bags that carry more goods for everyday use.
