A circular pattern of tiny seed pearls radiates from a design of tiny diamonds at the center of this bag. The frame of the bag is platinum set with diamonds, and the clasp closes with two small pearls. E.F. Hutton gave this bag to his daughter, Dina Merrill (née Nedenia Hutton), on the day of her wedding to Stanley Rumbough. Inside the frame is the following inscription: "For you darling to carry on your way to happiness. Love always, Pappy."

Gift of Dina Merrill Hartley, 1993
