I have quite a few Vintage bags. Some are in rough shape.You run the risk of getting the purse soiled or loosing beads. I always live on the wilde side and carry them. A woman changes her purse often/so I don’t carry the same one for that long. Actually my husband Steve Stoller,the painter did a large portrait of me with an antique purse;it’s on the website/www.fortgang.com*****UNDER MAJOR PAINTINGS
Vintage purses and handbags should be used and not just displayed.
