Handbags provide unique security

Published On: December 1, 2008

Vlieger & Vandam, Rotterdam, The Netherlands, is a fashion accessories company now offering a series of handbags called “Guardian Angel.” Each bag appears to contain a gun or a knife, but the outlined shape has actually been formed into the felted wool of the bag. The idea grew out of an increasing number of news reports of lawless and anti-social behavior; perceptions and the fear of violence fast outgrew the actual number of crimes committed, so Vleiger & Vandam designed the bags to give people the impression of feeling secure.
