Judith Leiber Pink Magenta Karung Skin Bag: Vintage
This stylish KARUNG skin bag in a jewel tone pink/magenta features a art deco style top frame. From the jeweled frame, fine hand-pleated pink snakeskin flows to form a softened and slightly rounded-at-the-corners bag.
The pleating and gathering of the karung skin, as in this bag, is a major Leiber innovation. Normally, skin bags have the skins presented as flat and straight materials. A soft, round and mellowed feeling is achieved in this bag by gently hand-pleating the skins. Other designers will machine-pleat skins making them bunch and hard. The shirring is done by hand resulting in soft leather and in concert with the shape.
Embellished gold-plated hardware
Hand polished gemstone cabochons amethyst, carnelian, pink rose quartz and jade are bezel set in a detail 'arrow' style frame
Jeweled frame on both sides
Pull-lock clasp at side of frame
Drop-in flat shoulder strap in karung skin
Tonal satin fabric lining
Inside dual wall pockets
Signature tag on inside wall
Estimated from 1993
Made in Italy
Style Tip: Wear as a clutch, shoulder bag or cross body as a day or evening bag with a classic black shift dress, black suede pumps and a high ponytail hairstyle for an elegant look this coming spring season.
