For your attention today is a unique and very rare antique real mink fur beggar's bag/reticule/clutch/evening bag/purse in a black colour with some dark mahogany shade to it. The bag was crafted in the USA in the circa 20-30’s (very possibly by Whiting & Davis by its unique style, however it does not have any labels inside).  

This small piece of art was made in a ball shape from real mink fur and gold metal expandable gate/scissors type of opening mechanism with a lid on the top and a rope chain. The bag is in excellent condition including all metal hardware, the silky black lining and the mink fur. The fur is absolutely gorgeous and softest to the touch with a pleasant to the eye natural luster. Obviously this bag has not been used very often and stored correctly for all this time.

This unique accessory would be of definitely of interest to a collector, however also it could be a perfect addition for your special event. This bag will go perfectly with fur stoles, jackets/coats or hats, it easily turn your dress into an evening outfit and it will definitely add the finishing touches for your special occasion. A genuine antique bag and rare to find these days. Be the envy of your friends with this rare luxurious item! Enjoy your bargain!

The approximate measurements are: height from bottom to the lid is 8" (20 cm), the width across the bag is 6" (15 cm). It weights 210 grams (without packaging).
