This is a lovely vintage handbag patented in 1953! This is a "rigid" reversible handbag -- one purse with alternate panels -- two looks in one purse!

The outer panel can be reversed (black vinyl on one side, beautiful tapestry on the other) or removed completely to show a basic black handbag! It has a clear lucite handle...

This is a colorful vintage hat by Le’Chapou! It is pillbox style with attached spring colors all around and the hat is red velvet.

Hat has a red netting veil that has been pulled causing a couple separations. You could replace the veil, remove it, or just enjoy as is! Hat is priced to reflect this imperfection!

Beautiful, like new vintage hat – you will not believe the workmanship on this hat!

Made by Lenhar’, hat is in shades of taupe with a milk chocolate color grosgrain ribbon bow at back.

The hat itself is a braided design – raffia, netting/nylon, and ribbon. Absolutely gorgeous!

This is a wonderful collectible – a child’s (young girl’s) black velvet hat / bonnet! Please see photos to fully appreciate this lovely item. I'm sorry that it is displayed on a full size mannequin head.

It’s difficult to photograph dark black hats and be able to see details so we lightened the photos a bit and the hat appears to be navy – it is not – it’s a rich, dark black.

Excellent condition vintage Liz Claiborne handbag! This is shoulder style with adjustable strap, has open pocket on back, interior has an open envelope, a center zip compartment with open areas on each side, and a small zippered pocket. Handbag measures 11” x 7” x 3” and has magnetic snap/closure. Always pampered!

Another pair of super neat vintage black gloves! These measure 14 ½” from hem edge to tip of middle finger and are size 6. They are made of a nylon blend fabric. Very nice!

Gloves have been hand-laundered and line dried (by me). They are ready to wear, give as a gift, or display.

These two hankies are beautiful!

Both are white and each has a single rose and a rosebud...

I purchased this neat little bottle of vintage fragrance at an Indiana estate sale!

I’m not certain if this is perfume or cologne but the label shows it was produced by Lynas Perfumers.

There is also no content amount listed but I would guesstimate it to be ½ ounce.

From my extensive research, this was introduced in the 1920s by J.B. Lynas & Sons and it is believed to have been produced in Indiana...

This listing has a gorgeous vintage Madeira monogram B handkerchief!

It measures 16 ½” x 17” and is in excellent condition. Hanky has been laundered,lightly starched and ironed (by me), and is from a smoke free environment.

Beautiful Mandalian Mfg. Co. metal mesh handbag!

As often happened with this type handbag, the metal is heavy and it has a tendency to pull free at the hinged area of the purse frame. I’ve looked at this area and it appears to be repairable – by a professional or someone with a lot of patience, unfortunately, I’m neither. :) There are 3 short (broken) chains in the fringe...

This is a beautiful beaded evening bag!

It is shell shaped and is covered with navy blue and iridescent beads. It has silver color metal frame and long (shoulder style) carry chain – the chain can be folded inside so purse becomes a clutch.

As often happens with this design, it has been closed on the chain causing a couple rough places about ½” from where it attaches to purse.

Handbag is in very good condition – all beads are present...

This is a neat and unusual lady’s vintage compact made by Max Factor!

It still has the label on back that states “Golden Lark Watch-Style Compact with translucent crème puff”.

Excellent condition!

This listing has a gorgeous vintage handbag! It's black faux reptile and has gold tone metal top closure that’s accented with multi-color rhinestones.

Inside zippered pocket has “Meyers, Made in USA” and purse measures 6 ¾” x 8 1/8”.

Super condition – I noticed some wear to the gold color at the lift-up portion of the clasp – that’s it!

I purchased these vintage stockings several years ago at an estate sale and they are the first I’ve seen in this brand! They are MicroMesh Ironwear insured stockings.

Apparently when originally purchased from “Miss and Mrs. Shop” they were insured/guaranteed – see photo.

There are 2 pairs in box, size 10 ½ M, and are a very pretty soft white color. Based on their color, I would surmise they were produced for health care workers (nurses, senior caregivers, etc)...

This listing has a very nice clear glass powder jar titled “Minstrel”!

Jar is in very good vintage condition – it has a couple rough spots (teeny dings) on jar rim and on lid rim – not unusual and undoubtedly caused during use/putting the lid back on the bottom. The back of the instrument has a couple teeny dings.

This is a great addition to a collection.
