This is such a precious piece. I found an opera clutch and posted a video on my page. I was so thrilled when I found it and kept touching it, as it was so compact and brilliant. These are gems.
I just subscribed to your channel last night. What a wonderful find! I love it! Such a great piece of history with the card, too. I live I the U S and go to estate sales and thrift stores all the time. I don't think I have ever seen anything like this. I will have to look at purses and bags more closely.
Congratulations on your first vlog, Cate! It's beautifully produced and while not everything necessarily benefits from video, your lovely compact handbag certainly does and you explain it so engagingly. The detail is stunning - and your concluding 'reveal' and explanation is indeed heart-wrenching - but brings your bag to life. Wonderful stuff!
Thank you! Yes, I thought this bag would suit video as it was rather hard to photograph, especially with our horrible weather lately. I'm glad you enjoyed it and thank you for your lovely comments. They've definitely encouraged me to keep going. xx
What a charming little compact handbag ~ and such a compelling story. This item was obviously very dear to the original owner, who must be pleased to know it has ended up in your collection! You've done a wonderful job with the first video, keep up the good work, I've subscribed and will be looking forward to your future videos!
Lovely story behind the bag and it's a fabulous piece to own! I've been looking up different pictures of these types of bags and I'm always wondering, where in the bags was money kept? It seems like on each bag there's a places for makeup, cigarettes, etc but no place for lighters or money! I'd imagine in the 30s, girls sipping cocktails in trendy bars would need to bring cash along!? Always confused by this! Lovely bag though, would love to see the others in your collection. 😊
It’s remarkable how moving something as simple as a note in a handbag can be. Thank you for sharing this.
Such a gorgeous little bag! I love the subtle but delightful patterning.
It's stunning, isn't it? I just couldn't walk away from it after he offered it to me at that price!

Thank you Sarah! Sorry, I've only just spotted your comment xx
