A purse is more than a functional carryall at The Purse Museum, a personal collection of Details Art & Design Gallery owner Vicki Schwager.

Schwager says of her purses:

The collection includes purses/handbags that represent extraordinary style and design. They are antique to contemporary, elegant to functional, humorous to serious, plain and jeweled. Each is more wonderful than the next. They are handmade containers to enjoy.

Check out some of the collection, which will be on display through April 20, at the museum's website.

The Purse Museum is located inside of Details Art & Design Gallery, 3001 E. Skyline Drive.
