Hand-Painted "fly with me" 1960s Artist Up-Cycled Brick-Red Faux Leather Handbag

About the Item

Eye-catching "Don't be like the rest of them, Darling." up-cycled hand-painted 1960s vintage handbag by Lilli Grill. Talented Munich-based illustrator Ursula Baur alias Lilli Grill is the first artist I am happy to work together on this project. This handbag is number one of five one-of-a-kind handbags embellished by her. Love her imaginative and expressive fashion-savy illustration art. Lilli Grill designed the playful illustrations according to the shape, style and colour of this unique 1960s brick-red faux leather handbag and painted them by hand with acrylic paint onto both outsides. The “fly with me“ named artwork features a stylized woman's face with yellow eye shadow, long lashes and a coral pink lipstick on one side, and two fashionabel beauties with yellow earrings chatting on the other side. Rigid frame design. Double top handle. Three compartments including two open flat side pockets and an interior white and black patterned faux leather lined compartment with a slit pocket. Gold tone metal push lock closure in the form of a bow. Signed by the artist on both sides inside the open flat side pockets. Excellent vintage condition. Width: 22 cm – 8.66" Height: 19,5 cm – 7.68" (without handle) Height: 33 cm – 13" (with handle) Depth: up to 8 cm – up to 3.15"

  • MOSCHINO Redwall Drum Novelty Top Handle Bag, late 1980s/early 1990s
    By Moschino
    Located in Munich, DE
    Early Moschino pieces designed by Franco Moschino himself – often referred to as Italian fashion's "enfant terrible" – within the short period when he launched the House of Moschino in 1983 until he passed away in 1994 are sought after and highly collectible. This treasure, like several others that are available at the Oh! Jackie storefront, comes direct from a German socialite and fashion collector so has not been on the market prior to this. This rare late 1980s/early 1990s MOSCHINO novelty bag is a wonderful example of Franco Moschino's fanciful designs and captures the fun vibe that Moschino has always represented as a brand. The design looks like a typical harlequin drum with its triangles in red, navy, yellow, green and cream leather and the red cord embellishment at the top and the bottom. It features a golden leather top handle, a cream top...
