Condition:
Good vintage condition overall. The top zipper glides smoothly and closes securely. The interior black fabric lining is structurally sound with tight seam lines, showing only standard faint storage dust. The exterior alumesh metal links are fully intact with no missing or detached sections. Note: The main body of the purse is exceptionally clean, with light, scattered paint loss and minor enamel chipping isolated only to the flexible top handles. Please see all close-up photos for exact cosmetic condition.
