In the clutch...

[diane278]

Using the Barolo clutch made me realize that I might want something a bit dressier. I found it.
Surprise, surprise....it’s GRAY metallic!
It’s from the Scarab Collection 2011-2012.......water snake with metallic paper edging. 11” x 6” closed.
It arrived in a Neiman Marcus dustbag, so it’s likely that’s where it was purchased.

Outdoors....overcast day (no sun).....most accurate color representation:


Indoors: Metal scarab clasp: it dials 90 degrees to the right to open....


Inside....open pocket at the top and zipped pocket in the middle.

Thank you, SS, for the valuable info.
