In a box of my Mom's old stuff

Long Description and Pictures (jpg, gif, png)

I found this in some of our old stuff.  I googled around and, although there is no marking to indicate it, it "looks like" a Whiting and Davis Vintage Mesh handbag but I really have no idea.  Since you guys are the experts in this stuff, can you help me figure this out?
Here are some pics, any idea exactly what it is and what it's worth?  The enamel is time worn but the mesh and links are all perfect.
