According to WWD archives, after the death of Julius Resnick in 1980, Julius Resnick, Inc. was acquired by handbag manufacturers Mutterperl Group, Ltd. in August 1986. In November 1992 the Mutterperl Group dissolved and the Julius Resnick brand was purchased by the British handbag conglomerate Hartstone Group PLC." February 22, 2009, at 01:06 PM
