The use of handbags is in trend since ancient times and has roots in art, design and fashion. As well as being practical items, handbags are also the keepsakes of secrets and dreams. They are extremely personal inside and out. Women use them as a luxury item to express their personality, so we can say that a handbag is much more than a bag that contains objects. The objects inside are also a fantasy world on their own. Everything a girl or a woman keeps in her purse is revealing her intimacy. Perfume, lipstick or other make-up are as necessary as keys or money. These object are mostly well chosen and tell a lot about the story of the owner. Handbags have been inspirations to many writers, designers and artists in general, not only for their many forms but certainly for the secrecy of their content. This is why glass handbags can be so interesting, they are transparent or suggest transparency. The eye of the observer will take a closer look and keep his attention until he thinks he can see what's inside. Just like the curiosity of a child looking in her mother's handbag...hoping to find treasures.
