A minuscule bag, 'smaller than a grain of salt', has been sold for $63,000 (Rs 51.6 lakh) at an online auction, CNN reported. The microscopic bag is fluorescent yellowish-green in colour and is based on a popular Louis Vuitton design. The bag has been created by MSCHF, a New York art collective. The CNN report further said that the bag measures just 657 by 222 by 700 microns (less than 0.03 inches wide). It had created stir online when MSCHF posted a photo of the bag on its Instagram handle earlier this month.
MSCHF wrote in the caption that the bag is narrow enough to pass through the eye of a needle and is smaller than a grain of sea salt.
"There are big handbags, normal handbags, and small handbags, but this is the final word in bag miniaturization," it had said.
CNN said the bag was made using two-photo polymerisation, which is used to 3D print micro-scale plastic parts.
