Description

Hi,

This belonged to an aunt who died in the 1970s. I don't know if she got it from her mom or later.

I'd like to know the material and when/where made. It is a gold or copper or brass color I guess.

It has a strap as you can see and the purse closes with a ball pushing over a convex groove. The bottom of the purse is a fringe design of the same material.

Please advise all you can. thanks

brian
