Early Black Silk Ribbon Lacing Ladies Straight Sole Shoes. |
This pair of antique early black silk ribbon lacing ladies straight sole shoes date from the 1830s. They are all hand stitched and made of black silk. These French ladies ballet slipper style flat shoes have ribbon laces, squared toes, straight leather bottom soles and no left or right distinction. They are lined in linen and white kid leather, with the original paper label still inside of one shoe from "Gregory & Cahill, Importers & Manufacturers of Ladies Boots & Shoes, 367 Broadway, New York". The shoes measure 9 1/2 inches long and 2 inches wide. These delicate silk slippers were reserved for indoor wear, evening dress or special occasions. They have been gently worn and are in surprisingly excellent condition with no wear or fraying of the silk. These are a rare and early find which are a deaccession from the Montclair Art Museum. $250 |
