Description: Vintage Silver Mesh Ladies Evening Handbag Here is a beautiful, antique, fine silver mesh ladies handbag. It features a floral pattern on the frame, kiss lock, and an ornate silver chain handle. It was most likely manufactured somewhere between 1895 and 1920. I do not see a brand name or any hallmarks on the frame. It was manufactured (IMO) in the USA. These were very popular at the time, and were manufactured by a number of American companies. The overall condition of the bag is very good+. It has a nice aged patina. I only see one defect; one hole on the bottom mesh is stretched out. (See photo No.1.) This item is much nicer than similar items for sale as it is lined with mustard-yellow satin, which is in very good to excellent condition. This item came from the stock of a high-end ladies clothing and accessories boutique in Studio City, California that was very popular with movie stars and celebrities during the 1950's to about 1970. The shop closed when the owner died in the early 1970's. All the stock was put into storage for decades and we recently acquired these items. I believe that all of the items are new and unused (NOS). Note: It is possible that some of the items were display items. I don't believe that any are used. This item measures cca. 40 cm (overall length - chain link handle to end of bag) X 16 cm. Clasp to end of bag is 19 cm. Weight: cca 250 grams. Made in USA
