it IS an antique, so I'm sure there are some stains on the inside. As far as I can see there are no beads missing, just a few loose strings coming from the material on the inside- it is NOT TORN, it's just a little worn, and old. Hope that helps.
Checked the other side, it is the same without the hand slip holder thing. Also, there is a tiny tear in the lining at the top where it connects with the beads- this is where the strings are coming from. It is small and unnoticeable from the outside.
