This charming Sterling Silver and Marcasite mini handbag or purse pendant is a delightful and unusual vintage-inspired piece, originally designed to hold a small scented sponge or perfume.
Beautifully fashioned in the form of a tiny handbag, the pendant opens like a locket, revealing the little compartment inside for placing a scented sponge or a small amount of perfume. The intricate design and sparkling marcasite detailing give this miniature piece a wonderfully decorative and collectible appeal.
It has a secure bail at the top, allowing it to be worn traditionally on a necklace chain, or alternatively attached to a bracelet chain as a charming and unusual charm.
The pendant is stamped 925, confirming its sterling silver purity & it sits on a Silver ‘Prince of Wales’ design chain stamped Italy and 925
