French Bakelite & Silver-Plate Coin Purse Metal Bridge catch Breveté SGDG

Presented is a beautiful antique bake-lite coin purse with a marked bridge compartment silk cloth panels separated with a silver-plate catch lock mechanism marked Breveté SGDG. Brevete SGDG was a French Type of patent that ceased to exist in 1968. This elegant piece has a scalloped shape with an accordion fold and a silver overlay decoration on the front. It is a classic piece with only some pin-prick dings, no monogram, some separation of panels from bake-lite top and base. This is a great collector piece for the Victorian dresser sets and an excellent piece for the silver collector.
