These vintage 1930s shoes are just gorgeous. Vintage red and gold mule shoes, with a peep toe and three inch heels, in a vintage size 4. While they were likely meant for the boudoir or possibly a night on the town, they'd work just beautifully in your next saucy burlesque moment!
The room they gave her - at the top of the house, under the eaves - was small, but the arched window opened out to the scent of jessamine and to a glimpse of the lake, and she could see a hazy corner of the moon if she looked up.

CONDITION: Very Good. Very slight fraying of gold brocade at toes, not noticeable from above, and could be trimmed.

The left heel has a few black marks and one white mark (short lines) but no tears or other stains.
The soles are somewhat scuffed from toe to ball, but not worn to any degree. The heel caps are in very good condition.
The brocade is very sturdy and shiny.
