DescriptionOne in a pair of shoes for a kroj from Haná, Moravia. This exquisite handmade shoe is made of leather and has wooden high heels. The leather is cut into intricate heart designs with surrounding embellishments that also run around the shoe's length to its back and heel. Colored leather fills in the cut designs, making the hearts red and adding yellow, green and blue to the dark canvas. The shoe is held closed with a mauve ribbon.
