[QUOTE="SBSVC, post: 275502, member: 136"]You never know what you're going to find when you start looking through bins of old stuff! This was in with a bunch of silk scarves I used to wear from the late 1960's thru the early 1980's. I don't even recall [I]OWNING[/I] this little purse, and I have no clue whatsoever about its age or anything else. (Was it my Mom's? My grandmother's?) It measures 6 [SIZE=3]1/2[/SIZE]" across and 5 [SIZE=3]1/2[/SIZE]" top to bottom. It seems to be silk, the beads are glass, and there is a silk lining with a pocket. The embossed metal frame must have been plated at one time. It does not seem to be marked anywhere. There are several small stains here & there on the outside. [ATTACH=full]87585[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]87586[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]87587[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]87588[/ATTACH] Any thoughts about age, maker, or anything else regarding this purse will be appreciated!
