A rare Dorset Rex metal weave handbag. Double swing handles with two small top lid openings. Body is 3 1/2 inches wide, 5 3/4 inches tall and 9 inches in length, making it a larger version of the Dorset Rex metal box handbags.
Inside is a pink satin lining with a side pocket. One lid opening holds the original mirror and the other lid has a small pocket.
Sadly the inside lining is in very worn condition. Edges are ragged, pocket has been pulled loose and it is very soiled. The outside has some scratches but it's appearance is remarkable for the age. Please view the photos carefully as I have tried to display the condition accurately.
Don't hesitate to ask questions.
