– DARK NAVY HANDBAG SOLD
ANOTHER VINTAGE PURSE FROM MY COLLECTION! ROGER AND I HAVE DEBATED THE COLOR OF THIS BAG – I THINK IT’S VERY DARK NAVY, HE SAYS IT’S BLACK – PHOTO IS ACCURATE SO YOU BE THE JUDGE. PURSE MEASURES 10 ¼” X 4 ¼” X 3 ½” AND IS IN SUPER CONDITION. THE ONLY “USE” EVIDENCE I COULD FIND IS A FEW STORAGE MARKS AND THERE ARE SOME MARKS AT THE CLASP AREA (FROM OPENING THE PURSE, SCRATCHING THE BAG WITH A FINGERNAIL – SORRY, I’M CERTAIN I DID THAT). THIS IS A VERY NICE PURSE – EITHER DARK NAVY BLACK – YOU’LL LOVE!
#hb247 – VINTAGE RED HANDBAG (UNUSUAL SHAPE)
SOLD
THIS IS ONE OF THE NEATEST VINTAGE HANDBAGS IN OUR INVENTORY! AS IS THE CASE WITH MOST OF THE VINTAGE BAGS WE HAVE LISTED, THIS ONE IS FROM MY PERSONAL COLLECTION. BEFORE I LEFT THE CORPORATE WORLD, I ALWAYS CARRIED A VINTAGE BAG (AND BROUGHT MY LUNCH IN A VINTAGE SCOOBY DOO METAL LUNCHBOX!). I PURCHASED THIS PURSE MANY YEARS AGO AT AN ANTIQUE SHOW IN NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE. OTHER THAN A SMALL AMOUNT OF COLOR WEAR TO TOP CORNERS, PURSE IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION INSIDE AND OUT. THERE IS A MIRROR INSIDE THAT HAS A LITTLE HOLDER MARKED PALIZZIO, NEW YORK (THE PURSE ITSELF HAS NO MARKINGS). THERE IS ALSO A SMALL COMB (ORIGINAL) AND A BLACK COIN PURSE (I ADDED). INSIDE WAS A BUSINESS CARD FROM “BILLINGS BEAUTY SHOP, 2810 GRANNY WHITE RD, NASHVILLE 4, TENN”. THE PHONE NUMBER WAS “AMHERST 9-4559” AND THE SHOP WAS OWNED BY “O.E. BILLINGS, PROP.”. THIS LITTLE CARD WAS IN THE PURSE WHEN I PURCHASED AND IT JUST SEEMED RIGHT TO LEAVE IT THERE.

JUST CAUGHT MY EYE! LITTLE PURSE IS PINK WITH A SWAN DESIGN ON FRONT, BACK IS
PINK (NO DESIGN) AND AS CAN BE SEEN PHOTOS, THERE IS A SMALL NUMBER (PROBABLY
LESS THAN A DOZEN) OF MISSING BEADS. BAG IS 3 ¾” X 2 ¼” – NOT INCLUDING THE
CARRY HANDLE/STRAP. IT HAS INTERIOR LABEL “MADE IN CZECHOSLOVAKIA”. LITTLE PURSE
WOULD BE A SUPER VINTAGE ACCESSORY FOR A DOLL!

ANOTHER LOVELY BEADED EVENING BAG! THERE IS INTERIOR LABEL “HAND MADE IN BELGIUM”. THIS IS ONE OF THE OLDER BEADED BELGIUM BAGS WE HAVE LISTED, IT HAS BEEN USED AND DOES HAVE SOME MISSING BEADS. INTERIOR IS CLEAN. THIS IS A VERY NICE, FEMININE VINTAGE HANDBAG.
#hb240 – BELGIUM BEADED EVENING BAG - $30.00
ANOTHER NEAT BEADED EVENING BAG! THIS LITTLE BAG HAS AN ATTACHED LOOP ON BACK FOR CARRYING BUT I WOULD RECOMMEND JUST USING AS A CLUTCH BECAUSE IF YOU PUT MUCH IN THE BAG, THE WEIGHT MAY DAMAGE THE LOOP. ALL BEADS APPEAR TO BE PRESENT BUT THERE ARE OODLES AND I MAY HAVE OVERLOOKED SOME BUT I DIDN’T NOTICE ANY MISSING. BAG MEASURES 6” X 4”, HAS INTERIOR LABEL “HAND MADE IN BELGIUM”, AND IS IN SUPER CONDITION. ORIGINAL MIRROR IS STILL INSIDE BAG. PRETTY!

HANDBAG LOOKS NEW INSIDE AND OUT (I KNOW THAT I NEVER USED IT!). JOSEF HANDBAGS ARE DIFFICULT TO FIND BECAUSE THEY ARE SO HIGHLY SOUGHT BY COLLECTORS. IT TOOK ME MANY YEARS TO FIND THE ONES THAT I HAVE LISTED.
#hb236 – JOSEF BEADED CLUTCH HANDBAG BY BONWIT TELLER - $180.00
THIS JOSEF HANDBAG HAS BEEN A PART OF MY VINTAGE COLLECTION FOR MANY YEARS! JOSEF BAGS ARE RATHER DIFFICULT TO FIND – OVER THE YEARS, I COLLECTED LESS THAN A DOZEN.
