In my years of collecting I have never seen a piece of art such as this Qi’ing Dynasty embroidered silk platform shoe.
There is only one shoe, which was a part of an estate sale couple of years ago. It is amazing that it still intact after all the years.
Even more amazing is the foot size of the ladies who wore this type of shoe.
The silk and threads are rough, as is the sole. Please see pics for condition.
