Estate Sale Find:
I found this wonderful folding purse at a Estate Sale where the lady did a lot of traveling and had many Japanese items, this one I could not pass up.
It reminds me of the old Country Store Baskets people used to take to the store to pick up their items. They wrapped their items in brown paper and string, put them in their baskets to make sure they were in good shape when they got home from their buggy ride!!!
This one is in pretty great sha...pe, no stains, holes, or smells. The middle two handles don't fold flat due to the Fishnet tied for strength. But it's close enough! I paid up for it, but not asking as much as others are, I believe they are fairly rare...if you are not sure about it, please don't purchase and then decide to return it, I don't accept returns on these type of items that are so finely made and can be fragile if mishandled.
Measures 14" x 13" x 8" opened.
Will ship out USPS Priority Mail for cost to your destination.
Box size: 12.5" x 3.125" x 15.375"weight is 1 to 2 lbs. I will make sure it is packaged safely.
