This 1920 enameled creation is in splendid form and the enamel paint has a nice sheen like only the Mandalian purses have. The colors are crisp, bright and clean. They include a deep forest green and jet black on a lovely egg shell white background, no fading or yellowing that I detect. This mesh purse has been so very well protected and cared for. The links at the hinges and about the purse are all intact, nice and snug. 
The fringe is equally as lovely, silvery bright and clean like the entire purse. All strands are in place and perhaps a couple are shorter by one tiny link, difficult to detect because of the intentional sheared style. The silver tone frame has a marvelous design, very different from what I usually find . Both sides of the purse are identical and my photos show a good representation of the colors. 
The interior is signed and unlined. The size measures 7 inches long by 3 3/4 wide at the frame with the chain dropping by 5 inches. Overall, this Mandalian mesh purse is quite appealing, in fantastic condition and will be a pleasing addition to your treasury of purses.
