Looking to ID the purse in my display picture. I had it authenticated when I first joined but now I can't find the post where I was told what it was! I thought it was a convertible clutch but it doesn't have the back zipper, just a slip pocket, and it has a back slip pocket. It's also approx 9x6x2 and not the 11x7x2 that a convertible clutch is.

Does it have a pocket right under the flap as well as the other two you mentioned?
I forgot about that one, but yes it does have a slip pocket at the front too
Then it's a Pocket Purse, style 9755.

I have a question about early Coach Bonnie Cashin bags with the Mexican Stripe Cotton lining. Does anyone know what material was used for the hardware?
When I recently acquired a Coach Cashin Small Shopper, it seemed that the hardware was different from my oldest, unlined, glove-tanned, made in NYC Coach bags.
The hardware seemed thinner and lighter-weight. I figured that it was just a base metal that had been chromed or coated with a gold-tone finish. It was very dull, spotted, and looked as if the finish had worn off in places. I was afraid that if I polished it too much I would remove all of the finish and just leave the dull base metal, but that wasn’t the case at all!
As soon as I started applying Wenol metal polish with a Q-tip, the tarnish came right off and the metal got bright and shiny and had a “golden mirrorred finish!” It actually shined up much more easily than my other vintage bags, I was quite surprised!
I now think that is must be brass or at least brass plated. I think you will be able to see what I mean at the before and after pics below. When I took the bag to the cobbler for repair he mentioned that the frame was “good, strong metal” and not “a cheap, flimsy metal that was likely to dent and bend." I was just wondering if anyone knows about the metal on these very old Coach Cashin bags? TIA!

Style numbers or names would be great. Thanks so much for the helphttp://s903.photobucket.com/albums/ac232/buggirl03/
Except for the keychain I can't find much more than they could at Ebay. The Daisy Keychain is style number 7328. The striped pouch with print lining might be from the Grafitti Beach line. They all look genuine.
Sunflower keyfob, style 7328
Beach top handle pouch, style 42620.
Dot top handle pouch, style 40400
