Exceptional Art Deco Mandalian Mesh Purse with Enameled & Jeweled Filigree Frame set with blue cabochon jewels. The frame really is extraordinary with a beautiful enameled floral design, and a blue and purple enameled flower around the clasp. Lovely colors of aqua blue, lavender blue, vanilla cream and gold gilt really set off the art deco pattern, it has a nod to Egyptian style.
Mandalian made some of the most beautiful bags you will find, and this one is no exception, made in the 1920's. Lined in aqua green silk {with a few age spots as is to be expected}, delicate ornate chain link bag handle. A fabulous addition to your collection of antique and vintage purses, display this one with pride or use it on special date nights. Marked inside frame.
