This is a gorgeous, slim and elegant turtle skin clutch bag in a rich golden copper colour with optional heavy weight chain. The handbag has an understated clasp in an Art Deco style which his quite rare to find on these handbags. We believe the hardware, including the chain, were gilt but have now worn to a silver tone with just the hint of the previous gilt. The handbag is in excellent, almost pristine condition and of excellent quality and is quite rare, turtle skins were used as a cheaper alternative to crocodile skins 'back in the day' but only for a relatively short period so not many have survived. The turtle skins are in fantastic condition with no splitting or cracking. The clasp has minor wear, similarly the chain has minor wear but no tarnish. The inside is lined in dark brown leather which is clean with no marks or stains, the underneath of the flap is lined in a gorgeous caramel leather. There is a zipped pocket and the brand label 'Fior Knightsbridge and Bond Street'.
This a fabulous little bag, it looks high end and good quality because it is, it will accessorise any smart or formal outfit for any occasion and can be dressed down to be worn casually and is in a very wearable colour. What can we say, we love it. Perfect gift for her.
It is 11" x 6.5" x 1"
