This is a gorgeous evening bag perfect for Your Vintage Wedding. Your "something old" dates back to the 1940s and is a soft clutch bag. It does have a handle though so could be a handheld bag if you would prefer. It is a gold fabric covered in thin gold lurex threads. It has a gold frame and double clasp to open it. There are 2 pearls inside the clasp.
Inside it has a satin lining with a small inner pocket. It has a label "RFC, Made in England" inside. This is a very old bag and therefore in used vintage condition.
