The first use of my silver purse hook was on a day cruise on the M.S. Dixie in Lake Tahoe, California. I found it to function very well as a purse hook, but as a bracelet it was too large for me and my 6" wrists. The Fumi Purse Hook is pretty substantial and solid, which is terrific in supporting the weight of a heavy bag. However, it's bulky to wear as a bracelet and I wasn't fond of how it looked hanging from my purse handle, so I just store it in a Tiffany & Co. jewelry case and toss it into my purse.
UPDATE 12/26/13: These purse hooks are so convenient and such a great value through Living Social, I ended up ordering a second one in gold. Just received it today!
