About
1970's Lewisette dark green satin handbag with a unique alligator embossed gold metal flap snap closure and a braided chain shoulder strap. The interior is lined with a butter yellow satin and the chain strap is a drop-in design providing the option for use as a clutch. Lewisette was a youthful line created in the 1970's by the well established American company, Lewis Handbags. CONDITION The handbag is in good condition and appears never used though there is some wear to the satin from years of storage. The wear is subtle but mostly noticeable on close scrutiny at the bottom corners as shown in photographs 12 and 13. MEASUREMENTS The body of the handbag measures 8" wide x 6" tall x 2" at the deepest. It is large enough to accommodate most tech devices. The shoulder chain measures 28" from end to end providing for a 13" drop.Details
