women's slippers VICTORIAN purple night vintage leather (black jewel)

VICTORIAN purple night vintage leather with grey grosgrain bow and shiny black crystals composition

• The highlight is the fashion jewellery composition of shiny black crystals on top of a grey gros grain bow. This is a contemporary design interpretation of the use of black jets and ribbon rosettes or bows so popular during Victorian age (= the nineteenth century). It is has the precious look of a queen's jewel but with a twist of modern funky eccentricity
   
• This version is in purple night vintage leather*.  This purple is very particular because it is deep and dark and with with just a hint of metallic light. Lining and insole are in black nappa.
  *it is quality suede that undergoes the application of a super thin metallic lamina which is then buffed to achieve the look of vintage leather from the Twenties'. If you take a close exam you will notice that it looks as if it is all slightly cracked. The leather achieves an attractive smooth touch and is a pleasure to caress....

• Made on our LOMBARD last*  which is our most sexy last, cleverly designed to have a distictive pointy toe while maintaining the absolute comfort you expect from slippers.
  The name Lombard plays on a double meaning: it is Lombard because it was designed and made in Milano which is in Lombardy county and it is Lombard as an homage to the all time glamour of the diva Carole Lombard
  *a last is a foot shape around which shoes are made, its specific design determines the silhouette and look of the shoe

• Made in Italy by hand by artisans matching patient traditional construction and careful leather selection with the use of innovative materials to guarantee long lasting comfort
   
• The whole insole is padded with a special open cell compound which ensures that you get both comfort and a breathable environment for your feet naturally preventing the development of odours.
  The outsole is in black bovine suede.
