Vintage Koret Black Evening Lizard Purse

Description

Elegant, tasteful yet eye-catching at the same time!
The sleek lines of this black lizard evening purse epitomize the Koret style of the 50's.
Functional, clean and minimalist, nothing struts it's shape like a classic wrist-let bag. Turquoise stones adorn the marcasite clasp. The exterior is a supple genuine lizard with elegant full skins adorning each side. The interior being a rich black leather labeled with the gold stamp " Koret – Made in France" and two side open pockets. This is an extremely fine and desirable purse. I will let the pictures speak for themselves.
The near mint rating is justified only because there are 3 turquoise stones missing from the clasp.
