Striped Evening Slipper Shoe Ornament
Art ornaments inspired by The Met collection.
Balancing function and fantasy, the greatest ateliers have crafted showstopping footwear throughout the centuries. Each of our ornaments echoes a historic shoe in The Costume Institute collection at The Met. These timeless accouterments will dress up any tree or elevate your living space year-round.
The hand-painted Striped Evening Slipper Shoe Ornament is based on a pair of remarkable British evening slippers (1860–70) decorated with ribbon stripes and a tufted accent on the toe. Such eye-catching embellishments were unusual for the time, when the intricate ornamentation of women's footwear served little purpose concealed beneath a large hoop skirt.
