Still working on dating handbags.

Big one is all leather and no label. maybe 70s?

fake leather clutch is many 70s too?

You guys helped me dated one 40s/50s Walborg clutch. The label is a little bit different on this one and I haven't find a label looks like that one yet.

what do you think?

It's hard to gauge the size without measurements but I suspect the beaded clutch is late 1950s to early 60's which is when I see the baguette or elongated rectangular bags matched with shoes from this period, and heavily beaded articles were also in fashion.
The large leather bag I would suggest is mid to late 1960's, that deep pocket shape is quite indicative of this time.
The faux tooled leather clutch I would think is late 1960's to 70's as this is the time when we begin to see man made materials being used for items which were predominantly leather previously, plus I have only seen that ring and ball zipper tag in 1960's bags previously.
 
I am same as Amanda. I am not a purse person. Thank you, Melanie. I learnt a lot about purses from you!
