A museum of handbags and purses in Amsterdam’s Tassenmuseum, this is a great idea for bag lovers, where they can experience the emerge of their favorite accessory. History of handbags and collection of about 3500 purses which date back to 1500, from present.
I was excited to see the history and not very known facts about the purses. On display I saw “Beastie Bags” this was a part of the museum displaying bags made from, or inspired by, animals. Many species which comes under endangered category now, bags made out of these species including ivory and tortoise shell.
One of the bag which i found most amazing was bag made of fish. This bag has been designed by a Netherland designer Evelyn van Oosterhout, who has made handbags from fish. Carrying one of these purse will certainly make you a center of attraction. This bag looks very delicate but it was extremely tough.
