Early
White Silk Ribbon Lacing Ladies Straight Sole Shoes. |
This
pair of antique early white silk ribbon lacing ladies straight sole
shoes date from the 1830s. They are all hand stitched and made of
an off white ivory color silk fabric. These French ladies ballet
slipper style flat shoes have ribbon laces, silk ribbon bow trim
on the front vamps, squared toes, straight leather bottom soles
with no left or right distinction and are lined in linen. The shoes
measure 9 inches long and 2 1/4 inches wide. These delicate silk
slippers were reserved for indoor wear, evening dress or special
occasions and this pair were probably someone's wedding shoes. They
have been gently worn, with a repaired mend on the left side of
each shoe and the silk ribbon lace ties have been replaced on one
shoe. These are a rare and early find which are a deaccession from
the Montclair Art Museum. $250 |
