"Deco Jewels, Soho by Julia Guo. Tucked way on Thompson street is a store and museum dedicated to lucite handbags, Janice Berkman may well be the world's expert on these sculptural bags handmade in limited quantities in the 1950s, starting this store 19 years ago. Every piece here is uniquely beautiful - geometric with intricate hardware, some with a splash of glitter or gemstones. A treat to visit, and even more so to pick out your own piece of timeless history."
