This elegant pairing features a mid-century “Lewsid Jewel by Llewellyn” handbag and a coordinating frosted floral brooch in a gold-tone setting. The handbag’s sleek black body is topped with a striking etched lucite lid, showcasing an intricate floral and leaf design, while the accompanying brooch mirrors its delicate aesthetic with a frosted bloom framed by golden leaves and stems.
Often referred to as the “Lewsid Jewel Box” handbag, this iconic design is celebrated for its angular, geometric structure and luxurious craftsmanship. The hinged lucite lid is a hallmark of Llewellyn’s attention to detail, featuring a crystal-clear surface delicately etched with botanical motifs. The black lucite base is paired with a sturdy curved handle and gold-tone clasp, making it both functional and visually striking. This timeless piece captures the innovative spirit of 1950s handbag design, elevating it to collectible status.
The addition of the frosted floral brooch completes the set, offering a harmonious pairing of vintage artistry. Perfect for collectors or those seeking a one-of-a-kind accessory, this set brings together two pieces that embody the elegance and creativity of mid-century design.
