Condition Detail
Looks lovely overall, the metal looks slightly silvery to uppermost edges, many pearls have finish loss and show white underneath, the interior has beige liquid lines at its upper right corner and near the clasp, with mild lipstick marks inside, the beige liquid has very slightly darkened the outside fabric in a very subtle way, this is extremely hard to notice on the outside but can be found under close scrutiny
