The victim is offering a £10,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest and a conviction, according to police.
More than 100 designer handbags have been stolen in a burglary at a home in Cheshire, police have said.
The victim is offering a £10,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest and a conviction, according to Cheshire Constabulary.
The stolen bags, which include bespoke ones made by the luxury brand Hermes, were taken from a property in Alderley Edge - a village home to several Premier League footballers and known for featuring in reality TV programme The Real Housewives of Cheshire.
Police were called to the property on Macclesfield Road on Monday - but detectives believe the incident took place a week earlier.
The force said rare and one-of-a-kind handbags were among the items taken.
"On Monday 17 February between 7pm and 11pm, unknown offenders gained access to the side of the property using a ladder and entered through a skylight," a police spokesperson said.
"The offenders are believed to have left the property along Macclesfield Road."
Jewellery and a gold watch were also taken, the force added.
The £10,000 reward is being offered through the unnamed victim’s insurance company.
Police are also appealing for information and witnesses following the raid.
Detective Sergeant Laura Fox said in a statement: "Our enquiries are ongoing, and we would urge anyone who witnessed this incident or saw anything suspicious to get in touch with us.
"The same goes for anyone with dashcam footage or CCTV which might aid our investigation.
"We also want to hear from anyone who thinks they may have information regarding the whereabouts of the items that were stolen."
