This bag measures 5" high by 7-3/4" wide at the base.  The width at the top is 5".  The purse is 2-1/4" deep.  This is called a "curtain bag."  This means that it has an interchangeable "curtain" for the exterior.  You can use the Gold that is ornately done with Oriental Fans with a different color flower in each.  Or you could remove the outer curtain completely to keep it as a simple Black Satin, which is what the base of the bag is.  And finally you can flip the curtain over to a luxurious black velvet.  This can be used for a black tie event or a casual one, depending on which color you choose to use.  The inside, made of silk, has the main compartment and 3 slip pockets.  It also has the original Edwards Bags Ltd w/patent #2,036,608 label.  

The condition is very good.  There are no rips or unravelling of any of the surfaces.  There is some slight tarnishing to the gold hardware but to me it gives it character indicative of the vintage look.  The inside has a small Black mark.  There are no stains or tears inside the bag.  On the outside of the Black Satin base there is a slight discoloration but I feel that it could be professionally cleaned.  

This would make a great addition to your vintage wardrobe or bag collection.
