15 Most Expensive Purses In The World

Luxury purses are not just a pouch for carrying your personal items. They reflect your status and image. If you see someone with a Louis Vuitton, you might immediately think that they are well off (which is not always true). The purses below are meant for millionaires and billionaires that have nothing else to spend their money on but million dollar purses.

15. Chanel Hilde Palladino Gadino Bag- $40,000

This Chanel Hilde Palladino Gadino Handbag was made of crocodile, has 35 white diamonds, and the clasp is made from white gold. This $38,470 bag is definitely an investment. Hilde Palladino is a fashion designer from Norway. 

14. Moreau Paris Diligence Crocodile Satchel- $50,000

The Moreau Paris Diligence Crocodile Satchel was made in France (as you can tell by the name). The bag incorporates a large slip pock and two smaller pockets on the side. Covered in crocodile skin, the bag is exceptionally impressive. 

13. Leiber Precious Rose- $95,000

If you are extremely wealthy and your wife loves flowers, get her this bag. This beauty looks like a real rose but just covered in precious stones. They did use leather for the body and the clasp. Amazingly, the bag is covered in 169 pink sapphires, 1,016 diamonds, 800 tourmalines with a total weight of 42.46 carats. 

12. Hermes Quelle Idol- $115,000

The Hermes Quelle Idol is also known as the Kelly Doll. This bag was first created in 2000 and eventually the production stopped for this bag. It is made out of bubblegum pink swift leather. This fun bag is definitely not a normal design with the hands, face, and feet, making it somehow one of the most expensive purses.

11. Urban Satchel Bag Louis Vuitton- $150,000

This bag is probably the weirdest design on this list. It is made with cigarette packs, old bills, water bottles, chewing-gum wrappers, and tags. I feel like most of us could make this same design. Although, Louis Vuitton made a good profit off it.

10. Blue Crocodile Hermes Birkin Handbag- $150,000

Hermes purses is probably the most expensive overall designer brand. They have a standard design but make their purses with different materials. The purse features white gold and 18 karat diamonds. This purse became one of the most famous and obviously most expensive purses. 

9. Hermes Exceptional Collection Shiny Rouge H Porosus Crocodile 30 cm Birkin Bag- $200,000

Hermes created a 30 cm handbag made from Porosus Crocodile.  This beautiful bag features 18 karat white gold and diamond hardware. The birkin bag sold at an auction in Dallas a few years ago.

8. Fuchsia Diamond Studded Hermes Birkin- $225,000

This is another Hermes purse that was sold that at a 2015 auction in Hong Kong. It showed off diamonds and white gold. You can find this purse in many different bold colors, making it an eye-catcher. 

7. Chanel Diamond Forever Handbag- $260,000

The Chanel Diamond Forever Handbag is a limited edition. There are only 13. It is a simple, elegant purse featuring crocodile and the beautiful Chanel logo standing out. 334 diamonds make up this beauty. If you want to, you are able to take off the strap.

6. Niloticus Crocodile Himalaya Birkin- $379,000

From the design to the color to the and craft, there is no wonder that this is so exclusive and expensive. The purse is made out of Niloticus crocodiles. In order to lighten the color, they had to go through a dying process that takes hours but is so worth it. Even with the crocodile skin, they wanted for it to be even more spectacular, so they added 240 diamonds.

5. Lana Marks Cleopatra Clutch- $400,000

This customized bag is made with alligator and 1600 diamonds of 40 karats. It is made with pink gold and pink diamonds to match the dress and write down her name on the clutch. This is highly limited edition. They only release one  a year. They have a different design and color every year.

4. Hermes Chaine D’ancre Bag- $1.4 million

This bag has the most different design that they have created. The bag is designed by the world famous Pierre Hardy. It is a part of the Hermes Haute Bijouterie collection. The work of art features anchor-shaped chain links that will remind you of prison chains. Clearly, this is more for decor that actually carrying anything. The bag is covered in 1160 diamonds of 33.94 carats. There are only 3 in existence.

3. Hermes Birkin Bag by Ginza Tanaka- $1.4 million

The creator of this purse is Ginza Tanaka, a designer from Japan. The art piece features 2000 diamonds on the outside with a pear-shaped 8 karat stone at the center. That stone can be taken off and worn as a brooch. The sling will also be able to used as a necklace or bracelet. If that is not amazing enough, the birkin is completely made of platinum. 

2. Hermes Kelly Rose Gold- $2 million

Hermes and Pierce Hardy (a jeweller) joined forces to created this beauty. It is made out of solid rose gold and 1160 diamonds. There are only 12 of them in the world. Fun fact: it took them 2 years to make the bag. 

1. Mouawad 1001 Nights Diamond Purse- $3.8 million

Finally, we have made it to the most expensive purse in the world with a whopping $3.8 million price tag! I don’t mean to state the obvious but this work of art definitely wasn’t a quick job. It took them 8800 hours to create it. In other words, if they never took a break or stopped working for a moment, it would have taken them 367 days to finish. Surprisingly, it is not Hermes who designed it. It is in the Guiness Book of World Records for its authenticity and value. This is literally art. It is in a heart shape made with 18 karat gold and 4517 colorless diamonds, 56 link diamonds, and 105 yellow diamonds.
