I have only tried a million times to photograph this bag, and this is the best I can do!!  It's a pearly grey CLOVER-shaped bag with a darn thick lid rivaling only those of Lewellyn.  I lost the signature Rialto button piece on the clasp some time ago and eventually replaced it with the vintage lucite actual button you see here.  Not bad if I do say so myself.  This is an all-time personal favorite because it was the second lucite I ever purchased (the first has since fallen apart)......and the beginning of an addiction.

The BEEHIVE bag!  We all know this one well by now.   It's the Holy Grail of Lucite handbags.  I had been hunting for this darn purse since I was a wee lucite-handbag-collecting youngin'.  Honeybees and flowers carved on lid.  Brings me to tears!

Sorry this photo is so fuzzy!  Satiny white with pale blueish undertones, this purse is lined at the base with pearl flowers!  Lid and base are crystal clear, and each flower has a rhinestone center.  Looks remarkably like a wedding cake.  All I need now is a groom!
