1-1/2" long (not including the dangles),
and 1" wide sterling purse. How cute is this?! Probably for a doll or to
hang from a chatelaine as there's a ring on the back side. There are four
original dangles. No missing links and the links are tight against the
frame. It has hallmarks too tiny to make out on the top of the frame. So
many possibilities for this purse--a chain, watch pin, chatelaine, doll!!
Circa 1900s. |
