Description: Vintage Whiting Davis 1940's Silver Tone Mesh Expandable Wristlet Dance Purse measuring approximately 6 inches from the cap opening to the bottom of the purse, with a chain drop of approximately 4 1/2 inches. The accordion mechanism works great and the top snaps on easily, with the chain intact and in very good condition. The silver on the lid and the accordion mechanism show some tarnish, while the mesh bag is in great condition, with the lining being detached in a couple of areas as shown in photo #10, easily reattached with thread if the new owner chooses to do so. A great piece of Whiting Davis history, and a great item for any collector of vintage and antique handbags. The inside of the lid is marked with a faint WD. My husbands father brought back many lovely pieces of jewelry, porcelain, clothing, perfumes, and household items to his new bride upon his return from Europe after WWII. Many of the items have gone to family, but there are still many items that need a home, and they are listed here. There are also other items, long held family treasures that also need to find new homes, as we have no room in ours for them. Many of them have been passed on from generation to generation over 100's of years. We hope they find a home with you. I bought many gemstones, carvings, minerals, gold, and other fine items while in the jewelry industry. Many of them I made into jewelry that I sold, but I am now selling all of the pieces that I have, since I no longer have the time to devote to jewelry making. Please look at my other loose carvings and gems for design or collection. I generally ship items within 1 day of receipt of payment (weekdays). Auction item payments are due within 3 days of end of auction. Buy-It-Now payments are due immediately. I accept paypal and do not ship outside the U.S. Returns accepted within 30 days as long as the item is returned unworn / unused and in the same condition as originally sold.
