<p>[QUOTE="Lizzie, post: 4440271, member: 2027"]It's only 4" wide and 3 1/2" tall. It has some bead loss, especially at the top. I was wondering how old it might be. Is it an evening bag? It seems too ornate to be change purse. The frame may have been silver coated at one time as there are still spots of bright silver. Should I clean up the frame with a sunshine cloth? Is there a market for this in its condition? So many questions! Thanks in advance for looking and any advice or opinions.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]381164[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]381164[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]381166[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]381164[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]381165[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]381166[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]381164[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]381165[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]381166[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]381167[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]381168[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]381169[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]381170[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
