Description:

Vintage Whiting & Davis gold-colored mesh art deco design clutch bag, small thin square yellow gold filled (YGF) panels measuring approx. 2x2mm each have been connected together to form a sinuous metal mesh which creates the large, slightly flared clutch purse pocket, finished at the top with a high quality smooth polish yellow base metal (YBM) frame with a geometric design and ball-toggle clasp, sturdy top connector loops connect to the 11" YGF oval-link arm chain, interior is finished with a peach-colored fabric, possibly taffeta, with an internal side pocket, overall the clutch is in excellent condition, however many of the YGF panels and toggle clasp are showing some brass and the satin interior is loose from the frame on one side, the fabric is not showing damage and it appears that it could be re-stitched to the frame, measures approx. 170mm wide x 143mm tall x 9mm thick. Currently in very good overall condition, with a little care, this could be a stunning vintage accessory from the mid-1900s!
