These are pictures of the purse when I first got it. I've touched up some of the scratches and such since then. It has a lucite handle. I use it from time to time and get lots of compliments on it. I just love it!!
I have the same picture that is on the front of the purse hanging on my wall. I posted pictures of it a while back on Show&Tell.
