Celebrate



It's that time of year again...fireworks, barbecues, flags waving, the 4th of July is here.
This year, instead of celebrating with just another red white and blue handbag, I thought why not focus on a moment of national pride?
Celebrating the American accomplishment of the first moon walk, this minaudiere from Kathrine Baumann is a miniature work of art.

The rear, which is the typical flag is a little been there seen that, but the front of the bag, a crystal mosaic of an astronaut on the moon's surface, with the flag waving in the background is pretty impressive. Even if it's not your thing (and honestly, other than maybe a rocket scientist, or space nut...suffice it to say, it;s a niche bag) the craftsmanship is impressive.
Now, say you are a space enthusiast, and you're thinking, "what a cute little novelty bag, I'll take 2..." you might want to check your bank account balance. This bag is a whopping $6250...but even astronauts can dream.
