"Tiny Handbag Fetches $63K at Auction, Includes Microscope for Viewing"

A microscopic handbag created by a Brooklyn-based art collective, MSCHF, has been sold at auction for $63,000. The fluorescent yellowish-green bag, based on a popular Louis Vuitton design, measures just 657 by 222 by 700 microns and is smaller than a grain of sea salt. Made using two-photon polymerization, the handbag was sold with a microscope for viewing. MSCHF is known for its irreverent art projects and has previously faced legal disputes over its creations, including the "Satan Shoes" featuring satanic symbols and drops of human blood.

The bag, made of photopolymer resin and featuring Louis Vuitton branding, requires a microscope to view its design. MSCHF is known for its controversial designs, including shoes with human blood and trainers with holy water. The bag's owner also received a microscope with a digital display. MSCHF did not seek permission from Louis Vuitton to use their branding.
