Rare ROUND tortoise Bakelite (tested +) Briefcase style handbag by Rialto! Fully lined in mahogany brown Moiré| taffeta with one elastic edge gathered pocket and one envelope style snap closure pocket with another open pocket behind it. The lining is pristine, except for darkening where adhesive attaches it to the body of the bag. Half a dozen scratches outside are the only flaws. Slight gapping at the sides, frequently seen in this style bag (see detail.) Attributed to Rialto by the Rialto button latch. Measures 8 1/2" in diameter and 3 1/2" front to back. Perches atop 4-spooled metal feet. It|s a beauty!"

This item was part of the archives of the Bag Lady Emporium, originally in operation from 1996 through 2022 (Inventory ID B00027). It sold for $200.00.
