Amazing Vintage Antique Chinese Purple Silk Embroidered Boots Dragon Waves. These are just too fabulous! But I don’t think any real person is going to be able to wear them. They have a stamp inside that says 40 but they are certainly not a size 40 as I know it in shoes. They are extremely narrow and short boots. So these are rather a display item than something you’re going to be able to wear. They’re done in purple silk with the same sorts of embroidery designs you find on Chinese robes. There are waves and dragons and a flaming pearl design on each toe area. Longest part of sole is 10 inches from front to back. From top to bottom these are 18 inches. Sole is 3 inches. From side to side it’s only about 2 1/2 inches where the widest part of your foot would go. The sole is stacked and stitched leather (stacked on its side) and is amazingly sturdy. That is painted white. The boot is purple silk. There are no zippers or closures. Please look at the photos carefully and ask any questions before purchasing.
