Fabulous early French fashion boots in very nice condition! No sweating over tiny buttons barely sewn to delicate leather. Just pop them on [ sort of !] These very rare to find 'bootines' measure 2 1/8" long and 3'4" across the toe and they have great form. I adore them, but they were too small for the doll I purchased them for - too big for the other dolls that could wear them correctly and far too early for anyone else here, so I'm sharing! The leather is in remarkable condition considering their 150+ years and unbelievably the tiny straps at the back for pulling the shoes onto the foot are still there!! Decorative only please!! The elastic does not stretch anymore, but has retained it shape and is not crumbling. The heels are of stacked leather and there is no size on the sole.
