Do you have a taste for schanuzers? If so, then you are going to absolutely enjoy this one. This is a bag that is in the shape of a schnauzer. When I first saw this, I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. It looked just like my friends schnauzer. We know this was a bit on the expensive side, but I absolutely adore my friend, so I decided to get this for her. She was amazed when she saw it. It even had a tuck in chain. It also has black onyx eyes.

I know that this is a bit on the expensive side for a hand bag, but it’s really neat. It is in the shape of a heart and has been fully hand beaded. It has a nineteen inch chain, which I found a pleasure. When I ordered it, it came in a beautiful box with a signature bag.

6. Lacey Blossoms Bag
Price: $2,995 at Judithleiber
Do you like lacey blossoms? If so, then you are going to enjoy this hand bag. It has a delicate blossom pattern. I have found that it goes great with many outfits that are floral or plain.
These are all beautiful.
These bags are fabulous but they are very expensive. Do you have cheaper alternatives?
I love the Dora Bag! I have been a fan for many years, using the beautiful photos of her animal bags, and others, from the late 70’s and 80’s. The pictures were cut from Town & Country Magazine and used to inspire and release the creativity in my inner city students. Unfortunately these were lost when our basement flooded in 2003. I find, many years later, that her creations still inspire the same creativity, this time with the cancer patients I am working with. It is truly amazing the joy and hope that these patients receive from involving themselves in creative expression. The ground breaking program I am involved with deals with a whole person approach to cancer treatment, and her imagination and designs are truly an inspiration. I have used them as a starting point form several activities.
I would like to know more about Ms. Leiber besides what is on the Wikipedia site. I was told that she ordered a handbag for a friend, but it came damaged and she glued crystals over the damaged part and that is how her business began. Is this a true story? Also, told that she makes a custom bag for each new first lady to carry to the balls. ??? Is there a limit of each design? Does she retire designs? Is gold plated used? What does she do now that she has retired? So many questions – I absolutely love the handbags. We have an exhibit of her handbags in the new Taubman Museum of Art, Roanoke, VA. The handbags belong to a private collector but Gallery Host are needed and I would like to be able to tell her history.
Hi, I’m really new here. I was reading the info on Judith Leiber and I was wondering if anyone has any tips on trying to sell a clutch. I’m a 23 year old college student, and a little bit ago I received, as a gift from my mom, one of the crystal Minaudiere clutches. It’s beautiful, but the problem is that I already had the same one and she didn’t know it at the time. I’ve had it lying around and it is time to do something about it. I used it three times, but its in great shape. Does anyone know where I can sell something like this?
Let me know!
Thanks Girls!

Hi Laura!
You can try eBay. That is of course if you don’t mind selling it for a cheaper price since you got it as a gift anyway.
Or you can always keep it. You can give it to your future daughter so that you’ll have matching purses. It would make for a beautiful heirloom :D
Where can I find the peacock bag from Judith? I really really want it!!!
