About this work

Women's shoe of cream-colored leather with a standing flap on the instep. Model: Rounded pointed toe, one vamp and two quarters. The heel slopes straight down at a rounded corner. The sides and back of the heel slope inward, making the heel narrower toward the bottom. The heel is covered with cream-colored leather. The heel has a dark brown welt from the counter. A plastic counter is nailed to the heel with three nails and a leather sole. Quarters lined with cream-colored leather. Vamp lined with cream-colored ribbed cotton. A T-shaped piece of rough leather in the heel. The insole is of cream-colored leather. Decoration: Starting from the sole at the beginning of the instep, a narrow band runs along the cut, widening into an ornamental standing cream-colored leather flap. The edge is bound with beige grosgrain ribbon.
