A sumptuous evening clutch by Judith Leiber, crafted in metallic gold karung snakeskin and finished with a sculptural silver-tone frame. The softly gathered silhouette balances glamour with restraint, highlighting the fluid texture and natural variation of the exotic skin, while the structured clasp and compact proportions reflect the refined eveningwear sensibility associated with Leiber’s accessories of the era. Retaining its original double-sided compact mirror and detachable chain strap, the bag offers both collectible appeal and versatile wear.
