Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
I appologize for the late reply but we have experienced technical problems

It is a beautiful vintage clutch or purse. Such vintage accessories are being offered at auction on a regular basis.
THe design and decoration of the lovely La bottega handbag is very special and unique. I would date the handbag to have been made in the first half of the 1900s. From the photos the silversurface appears to be in good condition without any signs of wear or tear to the silver colour. The decoration on the side is also in good condition.
Second hand designer accessories that sell for very high prices are by the wellknown brands like Chanel, Dior, Louis Vuitton and Bottega Veneta.
Your handbag has a lovely and special design and even though not made by one of the top names I still believe that it would attract the attention of both collectors and dealers if it came up for auction.
The estimate provided is for a well-advertised specialised online vintage accessories designer auction, where I believe the purse has the best chance of realising its fullest potential. However, there is no measurement for the sentimental value you might attach to the La Bottega handbag. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.

Please let me know if you have any additional questions. I’m happy to help.
Thank you
