Antique Victorian Figural Brass Slipper Shoes Christmas Ornament Match Holder
Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:20176766 | Material: cast and sheet brass |
The slippers are made of sheet metal brass as we...ll as a cast metal scrolled piece that attaches to each shoe. The tops of each shoe are lightly textured with a highly detailed whimsical pond themed design that features lily pads, turtles, cattails, snakes, ducks, birds, fish and flowers. The design itself is a work of art! Each shoe measures 3 5/8" long x 1 3/8" wide. With the hook, they measure 4.75" long x 3.25" wide.
The item is in very good condition. It has an aged patina and is also accented nicely by areas where the bright brass shows through. The piece was cleaned lightly with mild soap and water, but no attempt was made to polish it, as many prefer the patina look. However, it should polish up nicely if that is your preference.
