Condition
Condition:

THE FIRST
The overall condition is good though there are several stones missing including along the top on either side of the clasp, the bottom edges on either side of the hinge, the front lid top right and bottom left corner, and the center back near the top and bottom edges. The frame is also offset so closing the bag takes a little effort and there is some oxidation on the interior shoulder strap attachment screws.

THE SECOND
The overall condition is very good though there is one crystal missing on the back of the bag about mid level and on the top pressure clasp. There is some spacing variegations between the crystals though no other crystals appear missing. The interior lining has several scratches throughout.
