Lucite and Satin Box Bag
 
This bag is so unusual; combining lucite, satin, bakelite and brass in one design.
 
Cream satin is quilted in red and encased in lucite for the body of the bag.  There is a wide satin strap for carrying, and a red bakelite closure which slides across the brass trim to open the bag.
 
The interior of this bag is just as interesting.   A burgundy and cream fabric is used for the lining and a separate change purse.  There are moveable sections on each side, one with a comb and the other with a fabric backed mirror.
 
The mirror is starting to loose some luster, and there is a small mark on strap where it rested on the brass ring for the last half century.  Otherwise this unusual mid-century handbag is in excellent condition.
