An elegant vintage metal mesh evening bag attributed to Whiting & Davis, dating to the Art Deco period. This piece features finely woven silver-tone mesh arranged in a graceful cathedral silhouette, finished with a decorative fringe hem that moves beautifully with wear.
The structured metal frame is adorned with delicate engraved floral motifs and a small blue cabochon accent at the clasp. A matching mesh wrist strap completes the design, offering both function and period-authentic detail.
Metal mesh bags like this were favored for evenings at the theater and formal occasions, prized for their craftsmanship and luminous movement. Today, it remains a striking statement piece, equally suited for wear or collection.
