This beautiful bag is in very good condition for its age with no holes or stains and with most of its beads. I have stitched a brand new dupioni silk lining over the original one to preserve and strengthen it. There are some missing beads along the top row, on one side close to the frame and under one of the hinges.

Some of the tassels had missing loops and I replaced them using new Miyuki glass beads that are close in color but still a little brighter. I reinforced the bag attachments to the frame and under the hinges.

The frame has wear of the finish in some areas. I verified the gold content of the frame with acid testing.

Please look carefully at all the photos and zoom them in to get a good idea of the details and condition as they are part of the description.

Your bag is shipped carefully packaged and insured. If your purchase is a gift let me know if you want me to include a personalized message. I also offer gift wrapping with high quality flat sheet or hand made paper gift wrap.

I want you to be satisfied with your purchase so don't hesitate to ask questions. Thank you for shopping in my store!
