I guess you all are just as baffled with the mark on the bag below.  Any idea of the age?

 I love the unusually large kiss clasp.  There are 4 brass feet, the purse measures 8 1/2 inches long by 4 1/2 and stands 6 inches tall without handle 11 1/2 including the handle.  Each of the tear shaped kiss balls is about an inch long.  Thanks!

Hi all,

I'm trying to put a name and age to this cute purse.  The last picture includes the mark and part of the zipper for clues.  Mark is somewhat worn.

Thanks for any help.  :-)

Here is a wonderful Victorian mesh purse with leather lining.  It is marked German Silver on the frame.  This piece is currently on display at the Vintage Touch shop space in Antique Crossroads, Hagerstown, MD. If interested, drop me an e mail and I will transfer the piece to the Vintage Touch online store for ease of purchase.
