antique walborg silver leather kiss lock bag

* walborg * kiss-lock bag - brass closure - floral detail - satin lining - wrist chain * circa 1950s * usable antique condition: no major flaws; a few stains/spots * made in west germany measurements (taken flat): length at bottom seam: 6.5" height to top of clasp: 6.5" opening circumference: 3.5" a dreamy, true vintage kiss-lock purse from legendary handbag designer walborg. this delicate bag has a classic shape with a petite chain strap. brass closure features an intricate wildflower design. real leather exterior is a pale, luminous silver, with a white satin lining. gives me an old rodarte or erin fetherston girl vibe—the kind of thing you'd see in a room full of tulle skirts, music boxes, and beautiful cut-glass perfume bottles, like a sofia coppola set. this piece is likely from the 1950s; it is in usable condition but does have some flaws. most noticeable: blue-green tarnish from the brass, a slightly scuffed spot on one side of the handbag, and a few spots in the lining. however, this wounded bird is still beautiful, functional, and a true collector's item. all items come from a smoke-free, pet-free home. tags: walborg / vintage / retro / antique / leather / purse / bag / clutch / silver / cottagecore / royalcore / regencycore / fairycore / fairy / coquette / parisian / old money / goth / whimsigoth / witchy / balletcore / stargirl / silver
