I love the graceful sinuous curving lines created by the tone-on-tone leather trim used for these 1920s heels. The toebox suggests a T-strap with its cutouts - the shoe actually has a narrow strap that angles from Mary Jane positioning to ankle-strap. The heels are a classic curvy spool shape.

SIZE: Labeled size 6 B

MATERIALS/COLORS: Color is cognac brown. Most of the upper is a silky ribbed fabric - grosgrain or bengaline. the trim and the heels are leather. I can't quite tell whether the outer sole is leather or composition. The toebox is lined in a cream colored canvas fabric, and the rest in matching leather, with a suede inset at the back of the inner heel.

MAKER: Created by The White House, San Francisco

CLOSURES: The shoes close with a small pearly orange tinged button and buttonhole, somewhat unusual for this era.

CONDITION: A few minor scuffs and discolorations but nothing significant.
