SOLD

Caramel Leather
1840's

Lovely colour. Makes a change from black or ivory.


Cataloguing

The rounded toes with shaped vamp, double row of stitching from vamp to top of boot, side lacing with brass eyelet holes and original silk lacing ending in brass tip, leather tongue, lined with glazed cotton, left and right leather soles with copper nails, 9 in/22 cm


Condition

Very very good.  Right boot has small indentation to back, which is not a hole. Fractionally light mark. The left boot has little dark mark to the outer side of the boot, which I feell could be removed.  Few bronze marks to heel around on the other side. Again I feel sure these could be removed or covered with polish. Little wear to soles.
