Judith Leiber created exquisitely designed couture women’s accessories that blur the boundaries between function and art. Most known for her semiprecious adorned minaudières or compact occasion cases, her creations also include day bags, belts, and pillboxes.
The bags on display celebrate Leiber’s gold and silver works, highlighting her intricately sculpted gold- and silver-plated minaudières, clutches, and pillboxes which convey her inherent talent for sleek design.
