Vintage 1920s Whiting & Davis Dresden Multi-Color Ring Mesh Bag Purse, Art Deco

Grab this while you can! It’s a HIGHLY collectible Whiting and Davis Dresden mesh purse. This bag features silk screen painted ring mesh. The floral/abstract motif has yellow, red, green, navy blue and turquoise with the design differing on each side (see in photos 1 and 2). A row of mesh V-shaped mesh fringe is suspended from the bottom edge. The frame and gold chain handle is a mix of Edwardian and Art Deco styles, with ornate scrolls on the frame and chain, and a geometric pyramid shaped kiss-lock. The inside of the frame is marked with the Whiting & Davis mark of the time and "soldered mesh." There is also another mark near the soldered mesh tag, I can’t make out, I think it’s a letter. An R? About the Style: “By the end of the ‘20s, flat Armor mesh painted in bold Deco designs and Dresden mesh, with its tiny rings silkscreened by hand in dreamy Impressionistic shades, take center stage.” (from Whiting and Davis) Measurements (approximately) Bag width: 5” Bag length (with fringe): 6.25” Frame width: 4.5” Handle drop: 6.5” Condition: I’d call this good for its age, despite flaws (which there are a few). The lining is missing (which is a shame since the lining helps the design to stand out more.) There is some wear to the enamel frame and a few dark marks (the 2 worst spots of wear and darkness are circled, see photo). I do think it would polish up very nicely. It looks as if there has been oxidation on the mesh, so it has taken on a dark silver loo
