authentic beautiful early classic 1940s supple leather handbag in navy, with gold hard frame and large Art Deco style amber Lucite and gold tone metal clasp top, wide leather shoulder strap with an underside of soft navy ribbed grosgrain ribbon, gathered pouch style, gorgeous distressing across the top edges, scratches and patina to the metal which adds great character, brass rings on either side hold the shoulder strap, secured with grosgrain ribbon knots which have light fraying, edge wear, but feel sound, nothing coming loose or apart, good structural condition, the interior is stunning deep blue which I believe to be silk. The top does close correctly, all the way shut and has no issues. In photo 4 it isn't closed all the way by accident, but it does close tightly. Medium in size, see measurements, size looks a bit larger against my mannequin.
