Product code: Antique nickel /German silver order heart shape wristlet/waist purse
Unique, sweet heart shape purse from around the 1900's, Molded and etched silver metal, probably nickel or German order silver, I was told. It has been stored in it's original black velvet box. Both sides have applied pansies with rhinestone centers. Painted purple and lavender. Hinged with side latch. Beaded wrist strap has clear and amethyst glass beads and a few gold color beads. 9" drop. I believe that these bags where sometimes hooked to a waist band or hook. It measures 3 5/8 W X 2" D X 3 1/2" H. No marks on the bag or box to indicate maker or where it was made. The velvet box has silver plate on the top that could be engraved. It does have some condition issues. There is or course a good amount of tarnish. I used a silver polishing cloth on the sides and a little on the front and back but I did not what to remove the all green tarnish. The pansies have lost some of the paint finish. One pansy is off but comes with and can be put back on with some glue. One rhinestone fell out.
