ART DECO WHITING & DAVIS DRESDEN MESH HANDBAG

A true Art Deco delight, this hand bag features the ever popular subject: Peacock. In the dresden mesh weave, the colors are soft, varied, and pastel. The design is featured on both sides and it is in perfect, original condition. The inside is lined in a soft gold material and in the interior pocket, there is a round beveled mirror. The frame and the clasp are both in classic art deco architectural motif. The Whiting & Davis mark is on the interior of the fame. From the top of the chain to the bottom of the fringe, it measures 14 3/4." The frame is 5" wide (at the widest). For a collector or just a one-time buyer, this treat ranks high in the archives of these period purses. When not worn, it is so lovely, it could easily enhance any decor as wall art.
