ITEM# 5230
Frank T May Co sterling silver evening purse hand bag c1910
Vintage Frank T May Co sterling silver mesh evening purse hand bag c1910. This wonderful solid sterling ladies hand bag was made by the Frank T May Company from New York and Rtherford New Jersey. It has the M with a C around it emblem stamped inside along with sterling 679. This bag has a wonderful pierce cut flower design on both sides of its top frame. The May company was in business making sterling silver and 14k vanity items from 1904 to 1943. This bag has A. M. Tilney etched into the top rim. This could easily be removed If one desired because the silver is so thick. Weighs a heavy 285 grams. Measures six inches across, five inches high and has a 15 inch sterling silver chain. See Encyclopedia of American Silver Manufacturers by Dorothy T. Rainwater page106 to see the Frank May hallmark and to read more about the company.

Thank you for your quick reply. I am really shocked at the price. I knew many people here wanted it, but probably figured I didn't know what I had and they wanted to buy it for nothing. I am glad I held on to it.
Thanks again!
