These shoes embody the elegance expected of a Lady of the Manor, crafted to harmonize with the refined garments of the Renaissance. The upper is made from bronze satin, a fabric valued in the period for its gentle sheen and smooth feel, embroidered with floral and foliate patterns typical of the era’s footwear. Tiny beads are sewn into the embroidery, catching the light much like the delicate adornments found on noble attire. Below, a sturdy leather sole offers resilience for walking, while the satin lining rests softly against the skin, providing comfort during wear. Color variations may occur due to the natural qualities of the fabric and historical dyeing methods. Size 9 only.

Fun fact: Divit-toed footwear, marked by a split or extended toe, was worn in certain medieval regions to accommodate hose and to allow for a more natural foot posture, a design now revived by reenactors striving for historical accuracy.
