A rare opportunity to own the "Crown Jewel" of mid-century evening wear. This authentic Wilardy Originals jet-black Lucite handbag is a museum-quality example of the brand’s most opulent work.
Unlike common Lucite bags of the era, this architectural scalloped "clover" model is uniquely embellished with intricate silver-tone filigree and vibrant ruby-colored gemstones. The contrast between the deep, high-gloss black Lucite and the shimmering silver metalwork makes this a breathtaking statement piece.
Luxury Specifications:
- Provenance: Authentic Wilardy Originals (Union City, NJ), stamped on the interior hinge.
- The Ornamentation: Custom silver-tone floral filigree set with ruby accents on the front face and lift-bar clasp.
- The Silhouette: Iconic four-lobed scalloped barrel design—Wilardy’s most difficult shape to manufacture.
- The Hardware: Robust silver-finish piano hinge and a secure tension clasp.
- The Interior: Features the signature built-in beveled vanity mirror.
Condition:
Exceptional condition. The Lucite retains a mirror-like luster with no clouding or crazing. All ruby accents are present and securely set. Silver metalwork is bright with no significant tarnish.
An investment-grade piece for the serious collector of 1950s couture and Mid-Century Modern design.
