An interesting abalone shell purse done in a herringbone pattern. The purse is
7 5/8 by 6 by 2 3/4 inches in size. It has shell attached to a green satin
fabric covering a hard cardboard. each shell piece is attached by 4 threads in
a 7 wide pattern which rises 9 pieces high on 2 sides. The interior is the same
green satin fabric and has a single zipper pocket. the closure is a magnetized
snap which holds the purse closed. the handles appear to be rectangular
tortoise shell Lucite , attached by some of the same green fabric. It is very
clean and stain free on the interior. There 3 broken shells on the exterior. to
be honest, did not see them until examined closely, they seem to blend in
because of the fabric. There is no maker tag or mark, but it has a Made in
Vietnam tag inside.
