Saks Fifth Avenue Italian gold gilt metal Minaudiere' evening bag. Egg-shaped, gold metal with black Cabochon stone clasp, long black tassels on one end. This gorgeous elegant bag is a show stopper and elevates any outfit. I believe it is from the early 1970s. I purchased it in the early 2000s from a high-end vintage shop. I have used it several times myself and always get tons of compliments. It just feels so fabulous and fits perfectly in the hand, sort of amazing, really. Proof of a well-made piece of art! Some minor scratches on body of purse but very minimal and hardly noticeable. The bolt on one end appears to be slightly bent, but I really can't tell if it is or if this is just the design. Inside is clean but does look a bit worn, no holes or tears in the fabric, just aged from use. Clasp works perfectly, fits, and closes snuggly. This is a small purse, will only hold a few necessities like lipstick, cash a card or two. Measures almost 7 inches long, 5 inches deep and 11 inches measured all the way around, opening is about 4 inches. Unlikely that any cell phone will fit inside. This is a stunning piece of art!
