About a week ago we were trying to determine the manufacturer of this lovely 1930s or 1940s gold twisted metal (not lace!) and colored rhinestone evening bag. Because of the "GS" tag, we determined it to possibly be made by Gold Seal Importers, prior to its affiliation with Bags by Josef.
We got this info from the very useful website of The Bag Lady Emporium. Thank you, Bag Lady!
Within a week's time, we managed to solve the mystery for sure after we found this December 1, 1936 Vogue magazine ad. Below is a photo of the bag opened, with its GS tag an exact match to the Gold Seal trademark in the ad.
