Thank you so much for the kindness of the reply
I am confused to its original purpose as well.
I purchased it preowned and empty years ago finding the red an exciting color.
Attaching some more photographs to help you see the dimensions better.
Closed flap shows 4.5 inches tall by 2.5 inches wide
Opening up the snap flap it’s about 8 inches tall extended and
Depth of the pockets on the bottom are about 2.5 inches deep notably it is two stacked layered slip pockets. There is a square stitched feature right above the snap receptacle giving the bottom/most exterior pocket a defining separation. Could be a design feature to protect the snap or have some purpose —not sure.
I did find the vintage BEAUTY MATE German manicure tools found in the small kiss lock case and a standard nail clipper will fit inside.
I’m not sure it would be an appropriate design to hold a contact lens case with that 2 slip pocket design.
Another clue just noticed for the first time….there is a very faint O after the
COACH stamp. Does that means outlet!?
Was hoping to find the true history or because it seems to me to be pretty scarce wondered if it was a corporate holiday gift.
Again I thank you very much for lending your expertise. 💐
Kindest regards K
