After the company was formed in 1952, Llewellyn created many fabulous Lucite and Bakelite designs and this shape and color is a truly unique example. The complex body form is constructed of 2 identical undulating molded units, bonded at the side seams. The base of the bag is a rounded edge rectangle, the top is an elegant oval and what happens in between is all Llewellyn! The gray body is overdyed in darker blue-gray, what painters call Paynes gray. The bag carries no makers mark but is clearly Llewellyn as it carries their proprietary latch design. Four cobalt blue gumdrop feet protect the bottom of the bag. Pristine silver metal hardware, Lucite stepped handle trim and clear rod handle add just the right sparkle. Excellent condition with not cracks, chips or smells. Measures 8 1/2 x 4 1/2 x 5 1/2".

This item was part of the archives of the Bag Lady Emporium, originally in operation from 1996 through 2022 (Inventory ID H00077). It sold for $525.00 in 2013.
