This is a beautiful vintage evening bag or purse made by the Whiting & Davis Company of Plainville, Massachusetts. It is made in their famous gold tone mesh. The purse measures approximately 7" tall and 7" wide for the bag part of the purse. The overall height with fringe and handle is approximately 14 1/4".



The purse has a metal mesh exterior and a peach satin liner. It is a nice sized evening bag adorned with flapper style fringe made of the mesh armor links conjoined in rows of two. It creates a very fluid and striking accent along with an applied rhinestone accented frame. The rhinestone adornment is done to simulate a vine across the top exterior front of the frame. The bag has a rope style handle to complete the look for that special occasion or a fashionable evening out. It has a kiss clasp closure that is in fine working order and closes securely. There is a pocket on the interior for holding smaller items. As an added supprise, the orgininal miror is included !



This purse is in excellent condition as there are no tears in the linings and no unpleasant odors. The metal mesh is all in fine condition and the frame and hinge are undamaged as well.
