We are pleased to offer for this listing an antique Whiting & Davis silver chain mesh ladies purse or reticule. It has a cathedral window frame with a filigree pattern running the entire length of the frame. It has a ball closure which closes with good snap. The chain mesh is in amazing age related condition with a small missing link on one hinge and a loop missing at the bottom fringe. We did not find a maker's mark, but not all Whiting & Davis purses were marked. What we did find inside the bag was a Company insert which directed the new owner on how to care for and clean the bag. Due to the fragile nature of these bags we haven't attempted any serious cleaning, but we have wiped it with a damp cloth. Please enjoy the photos for the best look. It will display well.

Measurements are 7 ½” top to bottom x 3” w.
