Very Cool Interchangeable Cover Purse I have to honestly say that I have never seen a purse such as this one. The closest I came to a changeable purse were the old Bermuda bags with the snap off bottoms. This one really changes. Notice the rounded knobs on either side of the top frame. These hold the brown alligator textured vinyl cover on. Take this off by pulling and you have a black peau d' sois bag under neath. Turn the alligator cover inside out and you have a brown felt cover. The alligator and the brown felt are in perfect condition. The black cover underneath shows wear at the bottom corners. The brass plated frame also shows some wear. The handle is a transparent lucite in very good condition. Open the purse and you will see a black peau d' sois lining with a mirror pocket (no mirror) which does need to be tucked back under the frame. The purse is extremely clean with no tags or labels.

Very Cool Ethnic Looking Metal Embellished Purse These very cool silvertone metal purse is embellished with all kinds of wire and metal work and gem stones. It is a U shaped pouch with a hinged top and long silvertone metal chain shoulder strap. The purse measures 5 inches wide, 5 inches tall and 3 inches deep. It is not lined. Overall the condition is very good. There is one small place on the front and one very small place on the top where the finish seems to have come off and there is just silvertone metal rather than the deep aged look of the rest of the purse. I don't think that would be hard to fix. I don't see any markings.
