ORIGINAL RETAIL $350
This handbag was purchased in a retail liquidation. It was a shelf item but is nearly flawless.
Timmy Woods of Beverly Hills was launched in 1992 by artist designer and entrepreneur Timmy Woods. The line focuses on innovative designs that appeal to women with a wide range of interests. All items are sculpted by hand (many in the Phillipines) from fallen acacia trees, lined with silky bengaline, and have tucked in satin rope handles for shoulder wear unless otherwise specified. Her bags have been seen in highly acclaimed citcoms and sported by many in the entertainment world. For each tree used two are replanted in their place. Each bag takes 30 or more days to complete. These bags are collected both for personal use or as visual collectibles. Most of these pretties are very limited in space with small openings for perhaps a cell phone, keys , lipstick and a small wallet.
While her theme bags are eye catching, being a lover of the natural woods my fancy lies with her sculpted and lacquered natural woodgrain bags. MARBLE has fabulous aesthetic appeal with the combination of the natural grain & the painted jet and gold "marbling lines". The bag measures 7" W x 6" T x 3.5" D. While most of Timmy Woods bags are not known for carrying capacity this one is relatively nice size to carry for the day. It closes with an elastic black cord (mimics the handle) which fastens over the brass button on top followed by a large tigereye bead and a silky 5.5" black tassle. The interior is lined with a zippered pocket. The handle is black braided satin & has a hang length of 22".
