This vintage minaudière from 1984 by Judith Leiber is a highly collectible book peice.
Eastern culture is a consistent influence on Judith Leiber minaudieres. From China, to Japan, and to India, Judith Leiber takes us on a global adventure, bringing us small pieces of each place in opulent crystal minaudieres.
This bag is done in gold and rhinestone crystals and embellished with large garnet cabochons shaped into a curled Foo Dog, famous for their appearances on Chinese temples and ancient buildings. Usually depicted guarding the wealth of the Emperor, this Foo Dog has his own treasures to guard inside.

Drop-in chain shoulder strap, 20" drop
Press-release closure
Metallic leather lining in gold

This bag is a highly collectible Leiber rendition of the Foo Dog and much sought after for it's compact yet practical size and the dramatic silhouette when worn.
Collectors are drawn to Judith Leiber minaudières, particularly the novelty peices. The whimsy and cleverness that goes into creating a full size Foo Dog minaudière cannot be matched elsewhere.
Style Tip: Carry this amazing minaudiere like a clutch, or add the chain to wear it over your shoulder
