All with wear and marking from use. The gold purse with chain handle in generally good overall condition with minimal wear. The second gold purse or pouch, with tarnished zip and worn overall, the side still with needle and thread pinned through. The black Asprey purse very worn with the stitching coming away/has come away to both sides at the joint with the hardware. This could be repaired relatively easily. The schedule creased and marked.
