Adorable Vintage Kitty Clasp Purse, Brass Top Fabric Vintage Purse with Kitty Theme

Adorable little Kitty purse!  The details are so cute!!  Peachy floral fabric feels like rayon or acetate and the inside is a creamy version of the same feeling fabric.  The real story is the kitty kiss clasp - an intricate little kitty plays with a ball which is actually the ball of the clasp and the kitty's paw slides over the ball and holds the ball closed.  The kitty sits atop a pretty decorative brass frame and the handle is a unique ball and bar chain.  Inside the purse is a little pocket that holds a matching mirror.  So charming!

This little purse is so rare and unique.  It is very small, about 5.5' by 4.5" and that makes me think it may have been meant for a child but the mirror inside would be unusual in a child's purse.  I'm old enough to remember having little purses to take to church in the 60s and this one seems older than that to me.  In any case, it's wonderful and in very good condition.  You won't fit a phone in it but it would fit a wallet and make-up (or a little girl's treasures) or you could keep nostalgic little keepsakes in it.  

Super clean.  Tag says Made in Britain.
