It is very similar to the "ribbon handle and bead fringe" photo above. I have a note with it that reads, "This bag came from Canada given to my mother when she was a small girl, by her uncle, Willard Crane. She was born in 1847." This was written by my great-grandmother. Her daughter (my grandmother) was born in 1898. Is there a venue besides eBay where I should post this? Are you interested in buying it yourself? I will send photos, if requested. January 12, 2010

The question is whether a metal clasp was part of the original purse or was added later. That is a question that has never been investigated. Thanks for the question. You have inspired me to try to find an answer. The metal clasps are rare but appear to be on purses of varying ages.
