Goldtone Vintage Mesh Purse

Goldtone
Vintage Mesh Purse This goldtone vintage mesh purse has a nice patina to it. The frame is simple with a chain link handle. The bottom of the purse is nicely decorated with a chain "ruffle" effect. Six tiny balls hang from between the ruffles. There is no ball at the center, but I don't know if it ever had one. The purse measures 7 3/4" in length from top of clasp to bottom of ruffle and 5" wide at widest point of mesh. The handle measures approximately 16". There are a few links unattached on the sides below the frame. There are also some unattached links on the bottom where the two sides meet. There is one small dark spot on the purse, close to the bottom, which I have not tried to clean. The frame is unmarked and does show some wear.

Vintage 1920's Black Reticule

Vintage 1920's
Black Reticule Vintage black reticule with beaded loops which is in near-perfect condition. It is 6" wide and measures 7 1/4" from top to tip of bottom of beaded ball. Circa 1925 or earlier. No beading is missing on the bag except for one loop which is incomplete (not noticeable) and a few loops missing on the upper set of loops (this is at the side of the bag and does not detract from the over-all appearance). Bag is lined with a soft green print material which I believe is silk. The lovely metal chain passes through eight metal rings inside the bag; it is possible that one ring is missing. A beaded ball adorns the botton, completing the design. The bag looks great but with minor restoration would be PERFECT.
