Woman’s boots

Description

Women’s boots made of black leather with a striped cotton lining. The shaft, heel counter, and vamp are cut as separate pieces. Parallel machine-stitched lines run along the top edge, down the center, and between the bottom of the shaft and the vamp. A green leather welt is inserted at the contoured seam where the shaft meets the vamp. The rear shaft seam features a welt, while the front seam does not. The heel counter and sole are made of thick brown leather; the heel counter is decorated with a punched pattern. The single-layer rawhide heel and the sole are attached with wooden pegs. Acquired in 1991 from I. Mariev (Kyzylorda Region). Leather “bulgara”, cotton, wood.
