THIS IS A SUPER NEAT ENID COLLINS HANDBAG AND IS A DIFFICULT FIND!

THIS LISTING HAS A VERY NICE WOODEN BOX BAG BY ENID COLLINS – THIS ONE IS “LES FLEURS”! HANDBAG IS THE SMALLER SIZE – 8 ½” X 4 ¼” X 1 ¾”. IT HAS BEEN USED AND EXTERIOR HAS SOME MINOR SCUFF AND SCRATCHES. THE INTERIOR IS SPOTLESS! NEAT ITEM, NEAT COLLECTIBLE!

COLLINS BOX BAGS ARE BECOMING INCREASINGLY DIFFICULT TO FIND, ESPECIALLY IN THIS WONDERFUL CONDITION.

 

 #hb205 – ENID COLLINS HANDBAG – HEARTS AND FLOWERS SOLD

THIS IS SUCH A NEAT COLLINS HANDBAG – IT’S BLUE DENIM DECORATED WITH RED AND WHITE! AS WITH MOST COLLINS HANDBAGS, THIS ONE HAS A NAME/THEM – HEARTS AND FLOWERS – SO MARKED ON ONE SIDE WITH E.C. ON THE OTHER. PURSE IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION BUT IT HAS BEEN USED AS INTENDED. IT HAS SOME SCUFF MARKS ON THE WOODEN BOTTOM (COULD BE EASILY TOUCHED UP), THE LEATHER HANDLES AND TOP TRIM HAVE SOME AGING (WOULD BENEFIT FROM MOISTURIZING), AND THERE ARE 2 SMALL RED BEADS MISSING. IT SOUNDS MUCH WORSE THAN IT ACTUALLY IS AS EVIDENCED BY PHOTOS.  VERY NICE ITEM!

THIS LISTING HAS A REALLY NEAT CLUTCH STYLE HANDBAG FROM BERGDORF GOODMAN! EXTERIOR HAS BRIGHT COLOR FLORAL DESIGN, INTERIOR IS A SOLID AQUA COLOR, AND IT CONTAINS THE ORIGINAL COIN PURSE, COMB, AND MIRROR! HANDBAG MEASURES 9 ¼” X 5 ½” AND IS IN WONDERFUL CONDITION. BACK OF PURSE HAS A COUPLE LITTLE SPOTS – COULD PERHAPS BE SPOT-CLEANED BUT I DIDN’T ATTEMPT. THIS IS A VERY NICE HANDBAG.

#hb202 – PINK BEADED HANDBAG AND MATCHING COIN PURSE SOLD

THIS HANDBAG IS SO PRETTY! IT’S COVERED WITH PINK COLOR BEADS, MEASURES 9” LONG, AN D HAS A MATCHING COIN PURSE THAT MEASURES 5 ½” LONG. BOTH PURSES ARE IN SUPER CONDITION BUT I NOTICED THE PURSE FRAME DOESN’T FIT SNUGLY WHERE THE CHAIN FOLDS INTO THE PURSE. THE CLASP CLOSES TIGHTLY BUT I BELIEVE LOOSE CHANGE WOULD FALL OUT. THE CHAIN CAN BE FOLDED INSIDE AND THE PURSE CAN BE CARRIED AS A CLUTCH. VERY NICE!

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL BEADED EVENING BAG! IT WAS MADE IN FRANCE FOR ED B. ROBINSON AND IT’S IN WONDERFUL CONDITION. THE ONLY EVIDENCE OF “USE” IS A COUPLE MARKS INSIDE BOTTOM THAT LOOK LIKE PENCIL MARKS. THIS IS AN EXCELLENT ADDITION TO A COLLECTION – IT’S OUTSTANDING!
 

#hb181 – PRINCESS GARDNER WALLET AND LIGHTER (GREEN) SOLD

THIS LISTING HAS AN EXCELLENT CONDITION, UNUSED, PRINCESS GARDNER WALLET AND IT HAS A MATCHING CIGARETTE LIGHTER! THE COLOR IS BRIGHT GREEN!

 

#m2429 – EVENING BAG / COMPACT, LIPSTICK, MIRROR, ETC. - $125.00

THIS IS INDEED A FIND – A COMPACT SIZE EVENING BAG! IT HAS A SNAKE-CHAIN TYPE HANDLE AND OPENS ON EACH SIDE WITH ONE SIDE HAVING A MIRROR, A COMB, A LIPSTICK CYLINDER, AND COMPACT (THE LIPSTICK CYLINDER AND COMPACT ARE EMPTY, NEVER FILLED). THE OTHER SIDE WILL HOLD CIGARETTES, MONEY, BUSINESS CARDS, ETC. IT IS STAMPED MADE IN U.S.A. AND BASED ON THE INTERWOVEN METAL STYLING OF THE EVENING BAG, I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A DORSET REX PRODUCTION. EXCELLENT ADDITION TO A COLLECTION!

#hb180 – VINTAGE ENAMELED METAL MESH HANDBAG - $145.00

THIS IS AN EXCEPTIONAL UNMARKED METAL MESH HANDBAG! IT MEASURES 5 ¼” LONG (FRAME TO BOTTOM), 2 ¾” WIDE (MESH), AND 3 ¼” AT FRAME. HANDBAG IS IN WONDERFUL CONDITION -- AS WITH MANY HANDBAGS OF THIS TYPE, SOME OF THE MESH HAS COME LOOSE AT THE HINGES – THAT’S IT!
 

#hb179 – WHITING DAVIS DRESDEN ENAMEL MESH HANDBAG - $350.00

THIS LISTING HAS A LOVELY VINTAGE WHITING DAVIS MESH HANDBAG! IT HAS SOFT SUBTLE COLORS IN THE DESIGN (IT REMINDS ME OF PEACOCK FEATHERS) AND IS IN VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH ONLY MINOR “USE” EVIDENCE. THERE ARE TWO SMALL PLACES WHERE FRINGE HAS SEPARATED FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE HANDBAG AND PROBABLY IS A SIMPLE REPAIR BUT I WOULD ENJOY AS IS. THE INTERIOR LINING HAS A FEW VERY SMALL HOLES – IT FEELS LIKE SILK – THE FEW HOLES ARE VERY TINY AND NOT DETRIMENTAL. THE METAL CHAIN AND THE FRAME HAVE DEVELOPED AGE PATINA. THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL ADDITION TO ANY VINTAGE HANDBAG COLLECTION!

#hb178 – WHITE BEADED EVENING BAG - $68.00

THIS IS ONE OF THE PRETTIEST BEADED HANDBAGS WE HAVE LISTED! IT MEASURES 6 ¾” X 9 ¾”, 1 ½” WIDE (AT BOTTOM) AND HAS A SMALL FOLD OVER TOP WITH SPRING CLOSURE. HANDBAG IS CLEAN INSIDE AND OUT AND ALL BEADWORK IS PRESENT AND SECURE. INSIDE HAS A “MADE IN HONG KONG” LABEL, THERE IS NO OTHER IDENTIFICATION. AS WITH MOST EXTENSIVELY BEADED HANDBAGS, THIS IS A HEAVY BAG AND I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND EXTENDED USE OF THE BEADED HANDLE – SIMPLY BECAUSE OF THE WEIGHT OF THE PURSE AND RESULTING STRAIN ON THE HANDLE.
