| MM Morris Moskowitz Pure Silk Vintage Purse |
Very very soft! "MM Fine silk" monogrammed on the inside. The outer is a pure black sild. Double silk handle. Gold Floral motif clasp. A creamy buff lining of a fine silky feel. It is plush too, that is to say it has a thick padded lining.
The floral motif filagree gold metal latch works perfectly and smoothly.
The darted opening, (opens very wide) has a small internal side pocket that carries the items that were in it when I purchased this at an estate sale.
They are a Saks 5th Ave tortouise shell hand-mirror and a blue lacy hanky and a vintage glitter-speckled hair comb. Very elegant. Sophisticated. Very minor use markings inside. Spotless outside.
A beautiful 8.5x5.5x 1 w handbag, that would be well suited for evening, with it's combed sheen, or day wear.
Here is some history on "MM" : from The Bag Lady U.
"Small evening bags in luxurious satins, velvets, and brocades are offered by Morris Moscowitz. Among them is a neat tailored satin pouch with a flap that is adaptable to any type of jewel trim. It comes in a myriad colors. A double handled bucket bag has a sloping circular top lined with a large round mirror."
