Up for auction from a local estate is this wonderful vintage metal mesh purse with a Scotty dog closure. This is so unusual! The clasp is a dog and the opening of the purse is square. The purse opens into 4 sections and each of the sections is decorated with a lovely flower pattern. Please look closely at the pics. The purse measures just under 5" wide and from top of frame to bottom of fringe is 4.5". The scotty dog measures 3/4" from tail to nose. The handle chain has about a 4.5" drop. There are a couple of minor issues with this great old purse. First, on the top left corner there is a repair, not the best, but not terrible either. Also there is a few of the fringes missing and a couple of pulls in the metal(or bends)body of the purse. There is also some dark areas. Could use a good cleaning, but I will leave that to the new owner. I listed this in the time frame of the 1920's, but I'm not sure of the date of this old purse, but it is old! If you have any questions or need further photos, please email. This is very old and used, so it is sold as is. This is such an unusual purse. This will make a great addition to any vintage purse collection or scotty dog collection!
