About the Item

Step into an era of refined glamour with this exquisite 1950s evening handbag, where deep black croc-embossed calfskin takes center stage and the comforting weight of solid brass hardware underscores its undeniable quality. Every inch of the supple leather carries the soft sheen and gentle patina that only decades of careful stewardship can produce, while the push-lock closure and matching protective feet glow with the warm, muted radiance of brass aged to perfection. Designed to nestle elegantly in the hand or the crook of your arm, its compact form holds just enough—your favorite lipstick, a slim card case, perhaps a powder compact—each item resting against a smooth, satin-like lining that remains as fresh as the day it was stitched. Whether you choose to grace a candlelit dinner, a black-tie gala or simply elevate an evening out, this little treasure behaves as more than an accessory: it is a silent witness to a storied past and a promise of enduring style. To hold it is to hold a fragment of fashion history—a hand-crafted piece born in an age when every stitch and detail was an act of devotion to beauty. It's in lovely vintage condition as visible on the photos.
