Comments: These bags are the best. I make lucite style bags and other products 50’s styled over the last 5 years and repairs to originals. Just a sole trader I have recently repaired a couple of Wilardy bags. (Broken) the originals were always finished top class.

Comments: My mother owned a grey Willardy handbag, which I now have. Unfortunately, whatever adorned the clasp is gone though the clasp still works. Everything else is intact: the mirror, hinge and handle. I remember her carrying it to church in the 60s. Would love to have the clasp restored though have no idea how to do that.

Comments: Hello. I sell lucite purses in Las Vegas, and recently discovered this site. Of course, I also collect lucite purses! I am in possession of a number of Willardy (and other)lucite purses. One of the favorites in my collection is an almost kelly green Willardy purse.

Comments: I love the Lucite purses created by your family. I have a Lucite purse that is missing the handle. Would I contact a museum to find a replacement? Or is there a warehouse of parts available with leftover items? Thanks

Comments: I purchased this purse at an estate sale and when was this purse manufactured? I think it’s the 750 grey.
