Here's a fantastic pair of 1950's vintage Corelli Italian "Cinderella" shoes. The 3" narrow spike heel is clear lucite with carved designs, inset rhinestones, all backed with shimmery silver circle pattern under the top of the lucite for great reflection. Sexy clear vinyl on front area and sling back adjustable strap. Toe area is ornamented with sequined and beaded bows. Inside sole is silver with fancy scalloped edging. Information printed on silver interior right shoe: Corelli Made in Italy, left shoe reads Jupiter on the heel, probably a style name. There are numbers at the toes which I can't make out. Width at ball of foot is 3". Length from toe to heel is 9". Steel reinforced heel, metal heel tip. Interior silver area has creases at base of arch and soles show use also. They are in very good condition with all beads, sequins, rhinestones intact and no rips or tears to vinyl, etc. See our other auctions this week for more shoes purchased from this estate.

Here are 2 vintage shoehorns marked GITS. The plastic is very pretty, swirled, speckled, marbled... if you're into vintage plastics, these are unusual. I've had them for about 25 years. I believe they're made of celluloid as they smelled a bit like camphor when I washed them. One is yellow with white and brown... probably made to resemble amber and/or tortoise as was often done with celluloid... making it imitate another more valuable materials. This one is in very good condition. The other is red-orange with yellow, white, and a little black. There's a bit of an indentation along one side where it appears to have melted somewhat. There are also scratches on the back. Both were originally purchased from an estate sale.

Here is a pair of Papillio Birkenstock single strap sandals with a colorful pink, yellow, black, white modern summery print. They are advertised as perfect fit through 2 widths, high quality anatomical formed cork latex footbed; upper material is hard wearing Birko-Flor. They are European size 41 which internet conversion charts say is 9 and 1/2 US size. The box says Narrow Normal... the 2 widths for which they would be comfortable.

I purchased them from a house sale where I was told they had originally been purchased in Germany and given as a gift... but they did not fit and could not be returned. I was told they had never been worn. The soles do look new and un-used. The textured suede footbed looks clean and the lettering there is bright and unblemished but I think they may have been lightly worn inside on carpet since the sole looks so new. One has 2 tiny darker shiny dots that look like dried glue. I don't know if this happened in the manufacturing or afterward. They are in the original box with the original hang tag with information about their construction and also the original sales slip in German. I bought them because I thought they might fit me... tried sole against sole at the house sale, but they are too big. If it will help... the upper length measurement inside the molded foot shape is 10". The width at the ball of the foot is 3-3/8". They look great! Hope they will fit you!

Wonderful old figural pin cushion takes the form of a lady's fancy shoe. Was this the Edwardian era when they wore such exaggerated pointed shoes, powdered wigs, low cut necklines, etc? It's made of carved and painted wood. Cushion area is sturdy with a heavy muslin cloth but not much left of the silky brown covering material. Braided twisted cording around the cushion. Three pearls in front. 3 holes down the each side front indicate buckles, fasteners, or ties that are now missing. Paint is crackling off. Wear on heel edge. It's still a great looking and unusual piece for your vintage sewing (or shoe) collection. Originally purchased at an estate sale. I've had it in my collection for about 25 years. 4" long x 3" high.

This pair of Reebok's women's white walking shoes is size 8 and 1/2 wide (D). They are new in the box marked: K-Turn WD White/Sheer Grey plus the original price tag from Kohl's marked: $64.99 Style 105227. I bought them from a house sale where the older woman (70 something) said she had never worn them and they do look perfect... not a mark or any sign of wear on them. They were the right length for me but not the right width but I thought I'd buy them and try them anyway just in case they might fit me but they didn't... long enough but not the right width... which I knew in the beginning... so I'm passing them along to you. The box has the size & price I paid written on the inside of the lid in black magic marker. It also has a bit of a perfume smell. The shoes don't seem to have as much perfume smell as the box does... just wanted to mention that in case it would bother you.

Here is a vintage pair of leather shoes with maker's mark inside one: J. Schwarz Texarcana, Texas. Another mark impressed into the sole has a fancy border of ribbons and curlycues that reads: The Sally Shoe Co. and Reg. U.S. Pat. Off. They are also stamped 23/10. These shoes look quite old. They have a wide 2" laminated stack heel; tongue and laces; partially cloth lined interior. They are very narrow. 2-5/8" at widest point. 10" long from toe to heel. They do show wear... inner footbed lining is curled up and needs to be re-glued down. There is creasing in the black leather upper with some surface wear that looks white mostly on left shoe around opening and on left side of opening. Tips are motled brown and black. Surprisingly, the soles show almost no wear so they may have been rarely worn and the wear that can be seen is due to time and aging rather that use. They're definitely unusual. See our other auctions this week for more shoes purchased from this estate.
