Fashion accessories inspired by food are often witty and ironic, as is the case with Judith Leiber’s tomato-inspired minaudière (small decorative clutch handbag). Covered in rhinestones and glittering like a precious gem, this bejeweled handbag is certainly not your garden variety tomato. Rather, it is an extravagant accessory and an heirloom to be treasured.
