The backround of the fabric is a lighter green satin with the motif in a darker green that is outlined in black. This awesome purse is lined with black silk dupioni (please see my shop announcement regarding my use of silk). There is a layer of fleece between the lining & outer fabric to give the purse a nice "poofy" look even when it's empty (as if that ever happens).

Perfect for digging to find what you need this purse has a 3 3/4" x 7 1/2" opening and a 5 1/2" x 4" open pocket on the lining for your cell phone or keys.

Overall dimensions are approximately 12" x 9" x 5 1/2" gathered onto a 9 1/2" x 4" base. Dry clean only.

This is a beautiful navy blue vintage hat that I estimate is from the 1960s. The inside of the crown is stamped "100% Wool Glendover Henry Pollak New York".

The hat is made of beautiful navy blue wool felt that features a self bow at the center front measuring 1 1/4" x 9". At the center of the bow is a beautiful embellishment that has been glued on. The embellishment has a faux pearl & 6 sparklies. Before wearing the embellishment should be reattached at the vintage glue is starting to let go.

This beautiful hat is in prestine condition and, sadly, looks as though it's never been worn.
