Seller: herbiehicks ✉️ (9,543) 99.9%, Location: Bridgwater, Somerset, GB, Ships to: WORLDWIDE, Item: 324098023882 *AS FOUND CONDITION* SMALL SILVER TONE MESH / CHAIN PURSE - CHATELAINE INTEREST?. ** IN AS FOUND CONDITION **  -  WITH HOLES / DAMAGE / LOSSES ** SMALL SILVER TONE UNMARKED / UNTESTED METAL CHAIN / MESH PURSE WITH SUSPENSION LOOP  MAY BE OF SOME INTEREST TO COLLECTORS OF CHATELAINE ATTACHMENTS ?
This small purse measures around 7.6cm / 3" in length (approx - from top of clasp to bottom of purse) and 6.4cm / 2 1/2" wide (approx - taking the measurement from the top of the purse). It is being sold as photographed, with holes, losses and damage.  Although I cannot be sure, there may well have been small bead (or similar) detail on the bottom of the purse, but please view the images and make your own mind up.  It is for repair / restoration, or perhaps just to add to a collection.  I have not attempted to clean in, instead leaving that decision to the winning bidder. 
I have included a number of photos and these probably describe the item better than I can and form part of the description. Everyone has different considerations when purchasing items and if you need any further information, please feel free to contact me and I will try to help. The ruler and cotton reel are not part of the listing, but there just to give an idea as to size / perspective.

Condition: This item is in vintage / antique condition and is being sold in as photographed condition.  The purse has holes, chain / possible bead loss , corrosion, discolouration, wear, marks and knocks. For accuracy, although the clasp does snap shut, there is movement in the top frame (ie it will still open slightly even in the closed position / is a little loose). IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN EXAMPLE IN PERFECT CONDITION, THIS PIECE WILL DEFINITELY NOT FIT INTO THAT CATEGORY.  I have taken a number of photos which, in addition to forming part of the description, are there to allow potential bidders the opportunity to make their own assessment. This item is in pre-owned condition with imperfections / losses, so please take time to read the condition description / Seller Notes above, in addition to viewing the images, before bidding. Thank you.
Please feel free to ask any questions but please please ask through Ebay. Unfortunately, selling on Ebay generates a lot of spam and dubious emails and I now only respond to questions placed directly through Ebay. I will try to answer questions as soon as possible, but this will normally be in the evening. There are times where I may not be able to reply within 24 hours but I will reply well before the listing ends.
Postage
I am always happy to combine postage, but please contact me before paying to arrange the most suitable method. Unless I am offering free postage, I tend to charge P&P at cost plus 15-20% to cover packaging materials & other charges ( a little more for smaller items). Items that are under 2kg and fit into a box 45 x 35 x 16cm will be sent by Royal Mail, at a cost of £3.55. Larger or heavier items will be sent by courier. Parcels up to 2kg £4.70, up to 10kg £7.8 ( please note that there are some exceptions to this for large items). If the items have a value of over £25 and up to £100 an additional £2.22 may be added for insurance and signature. There may also be a surcharge for delivery to the Islands and Highlands. I will still happily send an item by any of the Royal Mail services if you prefer (Standard,Confirmed,Special Delivery), so please just let me know and I will provide a quote. If you require a tracking number for the item, please ensure that you pay for a tracked service. I am always happy for collection in person or for a buyer to arrange their own courier which may be cheaper for the winning bidder. Hermes is preferred for UK collection as we have an exceptionally good delivery man. International items under 2kg will still be sent via Royal Mail. I will quite happily post most items overseas, but if I have not already been provided international prices, please ask me for postage costs before bidding. I will not post to the Middle East, South America or Africa. International items sent by courier will require a contact telephone number. Packing - I pack to ensure the item arrives with you undamaged. If you have specific packing instructions, please contact me before paying as this may have an impact on the price, as both an increase in weight or size can increase the cost of delivery. I do try to recycle boxes and other materials wherever possible and will sometimes use newspaper for padding out, if it does not have any impact on the cost of postage.
