Bag smaller than grain of salt sells for £50,000 - you need a microscope to view it

A microscopic handbag "smaller than a grain of salt" has been sold for $63,750 (£50,000) at auction.

Measuring a mere 657 x 222 x 700 micrometers, the bag's design is so tiny that a microscope is required to view it.

It is described as being "narrow enough to pass through the eye of a needle".
