Apologies, Monsieur Dofan!


I forgot to mention my French beau, Dofan!
I haven't been able to find an association with a singular person. Perhaps he is to be my elusive accessory lover?

NAVY LEATHER DOFAN BAG WITH DOUBLE BRASS HANDLES


BLACK LEATHER DOFAN BAG


As an aside, the Koret wicker purse is the most expensive I've purchased at $40. This last, black Dofan was $32. The rest range from $22 down to $9.99 (I'm not kidding and yes, we can "high-vintage-five on those!) I see so much variation on handbag prices. Naturally, there are some features and design years, even within the same maker, that command higher prices. A $300 purse is just not in my budget no matter how rare or dreamy delicious it may be. So, I thought I'd share what I paid so other newbies know that good purses, in good condition, can be acquired by those of us whose last name is not Astor...or Rockafeller!

Happy Hunting!
