I've never seen another Bosca Built bag in this condition.
See the embossed square at the back center of the bag's
interior? "Bosca Built" in embossed in beautiful script.
The gracefully tooled and dyed leaf and flower design on the
front is gorgeous, as is the lovely dark red enamel on brass
front class. The interior of the bag is completely lined
in gray-green suede. There's a center section with snap
closure, deep pockets on either side, and a pocket at the
back wall of the clutch. There's also a full pocket on the
outside back of the bag, plus three pockets on the front of
the bag, under the flap. The bag is laced all around the sided
and the flap, and the lacing is in perfect condition. As is
the leather. This Arts and Crafts era, Bosca Built clutch handba
10 3/4" wide at the base, by 5 3/4" high by about 1 1/2" deep,
when empty. Near mint condition. No flaws. A great gift for a
collector!

music lover. Standard-sized, 16" high by 10 1/2" wide by
2 1/2" deep briefcase with exquisite tooling, including a hand
tooled guitar against a background of cactus. (Wouldn't this
be a great music case?) Zips all around with a large metal
zipper. Has handles that have a 2" drop or collapses into the
case. Inside, there's a leather lining, plus a wealth of pockets
Two large leather file-sized pockets, one on each side, three
smaller pockets, and an i.d. pocket with a cut-out window. This
case is in excellent antique condition. You (or your forever-
grateful friend or relative) can use it tomorrow. All the leathe
is supple and sound, the zipper is in great shape, etc. You'll
be happy!

Tiny, completely beaded coin purse in darn near mint condition.
At first I thought the beads were steel cut, but my trusty magnet
says no. The beads are excruciatingly tiny, faceted red glass.
Silver overtones. Deco pattern has a silvery white background
ruby red, lavender, crystal gray, and gray blue. White leather
lining is stamped in gold, "Made in France." Buttonhole
on the flap and a mother-of-pearl button. 2 3/4" square. No
missing beads, no missing stitches, no missing anything.

eExquisite little antique bag with rich, gold-red-brown (dependin
on the angle of the light) seal fur on the front at the bag.

deep. Hard leather handle swings from the intricate hardware that
seems to exist in order to allow it to swing! Leather band across
the front is imprinted with a belt outline. Very fine leather for
the gussets, base and lining. Three inside pockets. Handle has
3 1/3" drop. Bag measures 8" wide by 5 1/2" high by 6" deep
