The romantic figural scene is quite appealing and is displayed on both sides of the purse. It exhibits a tender moment between an admiring musician and a lovely damsel, each wearing period clothing of the era. The pastel shades of the tapestry are beautiful, yet not overbearing, with dusty pinks, soft wine burgundy, multi greens and rich ivory. The skyline is toned in a soft baby blue, the landscape is lush with greenery and trees which overshadow architecture and steeples in the backdrop. The tapestry is clean and bright showing barely any handling through it's many decades, perhaps just a tiny speck here and there, truly nothing significant or distracting whatsoever. 
The bronzy gold tone embossed frame is bright and sturdy, carry chain handle is secure and the clasp is snug. The interior lining, with label sewn on the pocket, has been gently used but not abused, showing some signs of age but nothing offensive. I cleaned the interior and removed several pencil marks, it is in very fine, usable condition, no tears, carrying only a scent of freshness. 
 This purse is well attached to the frame all around as it should be. Overall this roomy handbag measures 9 & 1/2 in height by 9 in width and has an outer floral tapestry band of 1 inch with the chain handle dropping 5 & 3/4 inches. You'll find this French tapestry evening bag will hold your essentials and look great when carried to your next special night out or gala event. It's a terrific purse, it's been nearly three years since I've had a figural tapestry bag as nice as this one. I know you'll love it.
