Kiki Smith Limited Ed. Tote, Handbag of the Day

Kiki Smith, noted feminist sculptor and printmaker, teamed last year with Coach to produce a limited edition tote bag (only 100 were made), featuring original prints reminiscent of Smith's well known nature iconography.

The bag is crafted from natural canvas and trimmed in silver snakeskin.

First available at the Whitney Museum, where Smith had a retrospective in 2007, the bag has reappeared at the New Museum, where it retails for $1,500 (a $200 increase over its original price a year ago).

The Kiki Smith Collection for Steuben Glass

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Decor, Jewelry

Kiki Smith and Steuben Glass have come together in a collection of 5 beautiful glass creations for home. Inspired by her long-standing relationship with tattoos, Kiki Smith incorporated her own personal interpretation of classic tattoo symbols like snakes, butterflies, moths, stars, birds...

The collection includes this grand scale mouth-blown vase (shown, $60,000), plus 4 smaller sculptures that incorporate silver accents that double as jewelry -- i.e. there's a snake with three silver rings on its tail that can be removed and worn, and a cat playing with a silver flower that doubles as a brooch.
