Chanel 2019 Egypt Paris-New York Scarab Minaudière Evening Clutch Bag
Egypt was the theme for Karl Lagerfeld's 2019 Métiers d'Art Paris-New York fall collection for Chanel. It remains one of the most historic collections to date.
The scarab minaudière is a rare find indeed and a collector's favorite - not simply for the jeweled intricate details, colors and paneling - but also the size. They just don't make them this large anymore. Massive, but with an intricately etched bijoux chain.
Often considered one of the most expensive looking minaudières Chanel has ever made - because the entire piece looks like it is covered in jewels. While there are various types of white sparkling crystals - small round, long baguettes and the large princess-cut crystals going down the center like diamonds, the larger red pieces are poured resin panels, the molds crafted by the famed House of Goossens, who collaborated with Lagerfeld exclusively for this collection.
Quite a large piece compared to the minaudières today, lined in leather, blue enamel "lapis" and gold colored frame and intricately etched gold chain that can be worn crossbody or tucked inside.
In multicolor resin and gold and gold hardware. Produced in 2019, almost 5 years old and in stunning condition.
