Top Ten Most Expensive Bags and Purses in the World !



We know that women love handbags, bags and purses but just why they love their handbags so much is more difficult to fathom. It can't be genetic, as handbags have only been around for about 150 years. The handbag fashion only really started in the late nineteenth century but it was not until around 1920 that handbags or bags became an essential item of a woman's wardrobe.
Louis Vuitton was the first manufacturer of "designer bags" and since he started it all off plenty of others have jumped on the designer bag bandwagon, no doubt seeing a good opportunity to make a lot of money by turning what should be just an ordinary utilitarian article into a prized object of fantasies and dreams. Why is a designer bag so expensive ? well, why not ? If people are willing to pay ever-increasing amounts of money to carry stuff about in, then why deprive them of that God-given right ?

Designer Handbags are Expensive - But Just How Expensive are the Most Expensive Designer Bags ?

The following is the list of the top ten most expensive womens handbags - which I obtained by scouring the Internet and piecing together the evidence. Check them out then rush off and buy one (well something similar anyway) !

This Hermes bags was apparently sold in 2008 for around $1.9 million. It is made of platinum and has over 2,000 diamonds.

The bag itself has an 8-carat pear shaped shimmering diamond that can also be used separately

Helen Mirren wore the $250,000 Lana Marks Cleopatra Clutch at the 2007 Academy Awards. Lana only allows one star per year to carry her handmade diamond studded designs down the crimson carpet. How snooty is that ?


5. Urban Satchel Louie Vuitton Bag - $150,000

The Louie Vuitton Urban Satchel Bag is created from all sorts of urban junk e.g. cigarette packets, water bottle, tea bags and band aid. Apparently this handbag doesn't actually exist and was put together as a spoof by an artist who I believe is called 14 (apologies if I spelt her name wrong) - and who resides here - http://galleryoftheabsurd.typepad.com/14/2007/03/the_worlds_most.html - if it doesn't exist then it should and at a $150,000 a throw I think she should make a few more, who knows someone may have $150,000 looking for a home?


6. Hermes Matte Crocodile Birkin Bag - $120,000

Named after British singer/actress Jane Birkin. The clasp of this tote boasts 10 carats of white diamonds. The bag itself is made of crocodile. You can get cheaper versions sarting at around $5000
