AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Antique Evening Purse in 800 Silver with Metallic Mesh - Liberty / Edwardian Style - Early 20th Century (circa 1900-1920)

Ladies’ evening bag, an authentic example of early 20th century goldsmith craftsmanship (Liberty / Edwardian period).
The purse is entirely made of 800 silver, as clearly certified by the vintage hallmark present on the inner edge of the frame.
The Body is crafted with a dense, refined flexible metal mesh texture (typeset as *mesh* or iron mesh), which gives the object a soft touch and a beautiful luminous reflection.
The Lower Edge: Enhanced by a geometric fringe motif with pointed tips (7 main points), finished at the ends with small hanging solid spheres, which add movement and elegance when used.
Rigid, shaped frame with a sinuous line, typical of the era’s taste. It features a solid and functional snap closure, topped by two spherical knobs (*kiss-lock*).
Equipped with an original elongated rectangular-link chain, ideal for carried elegantly on the wrist or by hand.

Total weight: 225 g
Careful and trackable shipping
