Vintage Beaded Leather Wedding shoes These creamy soft natural white leather bridal slippers are the loveliest I have ever seen. They are lined with the finest glove leather and the inner soles are pink satin. There is a partly visible gold printed logo on the lining of one slipper that says "St. Moritz" so I assume they were made or bought in that fashionable Swiss resort. The top front of the shoe is decorated with cut out work surrounded by an Exquisite design made with the tiniest crystal like beads. A feature that certainly makes them a Haut-Couture fashion foot piece is a cord that runs around the inside of the top of the shoe and ties unseen in the front. This addition aids in having a perfect fit.
The slippers are a long and elegant 10 ½ inches (26.5 cm) in length and 2 ½ plus inches wide ( 7 + cm). The heel is 2 inches (5 cm). On the thin leather soles are small incised numbers 5 95 37 5. These collector’s slippers have been worn and their condition shows this but this certainly does not detract from their romantic charm. Overseas postage $18.00
