The sexiest thing ever invented for the foot? The stiletto heel!
Popularized in the 1950's the stiletto heel was sexy BUT ALSO still practical enough to be worn on a regular basis. These incredible shoes are an example from shoemaker Giuseppe Salvo and they are hand-finished! (this means the stitching was done by machine but most of the shoe construction would have been hand-done). They are mainly suede, with a hot 'flame' like pattern that graduates into satin fabric in black. The toes are slightly elongated and extra pointy. The overall condition is excellent for wearability (they would last an extra long time if taken to a shoe repair person, for fresh heel caps and undersoles!) and good for overall condition. There is an obvious stitch repair at the outer vamp edge of the right shoe, some mild wear to the same location on the left shoe, the insole liners have lifted, and some mild wear to the satin sections. Please see photographs for full details. These are not marked with a size (they may have been bespoke or custom-made for someone) so please refer to the measurements below, or feel free to reach out. They equate to a U.S. Women's size 10-10.5 Narrow.
Measurements:
- 10.75" total length of shoe from back heel to toe tip
- 9.25" total length (measured from bottom shoe) from toe tip to heel tip
- 3 1/16" (7.75 cm) across at the widest section of sole (measured from bottom)
- 10.75" total length of insole (measured from inside shoe)
