If you are handbag obsessed like we are, then you know there
is just something so stunning about a vintage Lucite purse. These delicate
little items became popular in the 1950’s and are still a panache symbol of
that decade. Lucite handbags and ‘compact’ purses were the ultimate luxe item,
and they came styled to suit the glamorous women who attended cocktail parties
and elegant dinners out. Some of our favorite Lucite designers are Charles Kahn
and Wilardy. Their high-end examples remain true works of wearable art.
