(For scale, that’s comparable to about a speck of dust.) Smaller than a grain of sea salt and narrow enough to pass through the eye of a needle, this is a purse so small you’ll need a microscope to see it.

It will first be displayed in a sealed gel case and pre-mounted beneath a microscope on public view at the 8 Avenue Matignon gallery in Paris from June 20 to June 24. Then it will make its way into the Just Phriends sale—an upcoming auction from Pharrell Williams’s auction house, Joopiter, on June 19 to June 27. The starting bid is unknown just yet— according to Vogue.

Mschf reportedly did not get permission from Louis Vuitton, so it’s not an official collaboration says NYTimes but since the bag is going on auction in Pharell Williams’s auction house it is kind of a perfect match since Pharell is the current Creative director of Louis Vuitton’s Menswear line.
