I just bought this 40's vintage purse, and I'm so excited! It seems to be in perfect condition. It's made from black corde, which was extremely popular during the 1940's. Corde was advertised during the 40's as the longest wearing of all handbag fabrics, and has a very elegant look. It's also lined in satin and has a cute double clasp :)

Oh nice. I'm always searching for the perfect purse.
I absolutely LOVE vintage handbags! We have a hospice thrift store here that's just a treasure trove for vintage handbags, and I've collected some fab ones over the years. I much prefer vintage bags to new ones.
