An 18th century earthenware shoe is a unique decorative object, often used as an ornamental or utilitarian element, typical of the craftsmanship of the period. I believe this shoe comes from the South-West of France. It is dated 1783, making it a rare and precious piece.
This type of earthenware in the shape of a shoe could be used as a potpourri, or simply as a decorative element on a mantelpiece or shelf.
The shoe is adorned with a delicately hand-painted floral design, in tones typical of South of France earthenware.
CONDITION : Good antique condition with some normal signs of wears. Please take a close look at the photos, they are an integral part of the description.
