AB-10438  NEW!           $125

5" x 3-1/2" Evans mesh purse with 2-1/2" round compact lid! The mesh pieces are larger than I often see and are attched tightly to the compact frame. The compact lid has a gold tone and black enamel deco design, all intact. Inside has the lift up section with metal mirror for the loose powder, empty, with puff. The inside of the mesh purse has the original yellow silk lining in top condition. Nice chain link wrist strap. No damage at all to the compact purse. Very sweet 1930s compact purse!

AB-979                     $118

3-1/2" x 2-1/2" hammered silver (not marked sterling, but tested silver) vanity. Inside has coin holders for a nickle and dime. There's a section that opens for a compact and a section for bills. It's marked WM Co. on the inside and has ENB monogram in the corner. Top condition. Circa 1920's.

AB-BAGS                $25

A package of 12 unused gift/shopping bags with purses on both sides! The bags measure 5-1/2" x 4-1/2" and have a green and white twisted cord handle knotted into holes on the tops of the bags. The bags also come with a small note card attached to the handle. The bags are packed 12 to a package. Cute bags to use  when giving a gift! Sold in packs of 12 for $25.

AB-7729          $100

4" x 3" "purse" shaped German silver purple with nice engraved floral designs on both sides. The initial "B" is on one side. It's marked "G. Silver" on the front. The inside has two sections and then the middle section has a fold over clasp that opens to reveal another compartment. The inside material is a light blue and shows some staining, but no tears. There is a long chain attached to the outer loops that is brand new. No dents or dings, closes tightly. The purse can definitely be used today! From the early 1900s.

AB-668          $35

6" x 6-1/2" round shaped wooden beaded purse with handle. Blue, green, red, brown beads all strung together. No lining or closure. No holes or damage. Fun purse! From the 1950s I think.

AB-5429          $108

3" x 3" gunmetal purse with chaing leading up to a finger ring. The purse is unmarked with a plain gunmetal frame. This probably used to hang off your belt. It can still be used that way today! No links missing and tight against the sides of the frame. Circa 1900s. Cute!

AB-4698          $89

11" x 7" (from top to the end of the fringe) brown "knit" material pouch shaped purse with cut steel designs all over. The bag has the original black silk lining and black cord to open/close the bag. There is also a large ball dangling at the bottom of the purse with steel beaded fringe. The bag looks like it was never used. The entire bag is very clean and in terrific condition and the steel beads still have their shimmer! Dates from the early 1900s.
