VINTAGE ('40s) Saks Fifth Avenue * WHITE Hand-Beaded Purse ☆ Made in Belgium

One of my grandmother's well-loved (and much used) evening purses from the '40s ~ from SAKS FIFTH AVENUE ~ made in BELGIUM. It's hand-beaded in WHITE and has satin lining. It measures 7" across the top ~ 9-1/4" across the middle ~ 7" across the bottom ~ 5-1/4" tall, with a 6-1/2" drop to the handle. It obviously has been to quite a few parties and has led a very full life (I'm sure it accompanied my grandparents when they spent the summers in Cuba, and then later in Puerto Rico). But if you're looking for a piece of history to add to a purse collection, this one could sure tell some wild stories to your other purses!
