Unfortunately the photos don't do it justice. Several attempts did not improve the quality, I may end up trying again. Reflections off the background are creating spots of overexposed light as seen in several of my photos. The mesh is silver, relatively bright with black zigzag rows that tend to bleed into the silver like a Dresden silk screen, again, not showing all that well in my pictures. It exhibits a most interesting overall look, much more attractive than shown. The purse is the epitome of the Art Deco era and the ultra fine step down fringe illustrates that perfectly.
The clasp is the perfect crown for carrying the Deco style to the top of the purse. Even the elements that hold the chain handle improve upon that artistic fashion and are precisely coordinated with the closure. The interior is unsigned and lined in a tan or beige fabric, very secure, no wear, looking unused. The mesh is in very good condition and will arrive with just a little link disconnect in a couple of wee places, one in the body, another in the fringe, both hardly noticeable. This purse measures 7 inches to the tip of the fringe by 5 inches wide, the snake chain handle drops 6 1/2 inches. This mesh handbag is so different, I think you will enjoy this one, it certainly will add diversity to your collection.  Item 4-109 M4 Sold, Thank You!
