Description :
This antique leather coin purse features a distinctive patina and a well-worn surface, reflecting its age and authentic use over the decades. The gathered leather body is stitched securely to a silvertone metal frame that clasps shut with a traditional ball-knob closure. Inside, the compartment folds inward, adding structure to its soft form. Signs of wear, darkened spots, and a soft, pliable texture speak to its long-term use and historical charm.
