  New purse made from 500-yr-old Da Vinci drawing...

 A sketch of a bag found amongst Da Vinci's papers is now a real item. I'm not sure if it's really cool or a sign that pop culture has now truly swallowed everything...
At least the bag is still completely handcrafted, I suppose that's something (other than an advertising buzzword, lol).

... they turned a Da Vinci doodle into reality?

I can't decide whether to be amused or dismayed.

 I hear that - and which Da Vinci drawing it was is the scary part... They couldn't give away working ornithopters to kids, but they can sell this purse for piles of money. Oy.
