Fascinating. Is it a shoe?
Yes, a lotus shoe. It was on it's own so there is nothing for scale but it was so tiny :)
OMG Ellie that is so beautiful, however i am pleased i dont have to wear it! x
Oh I know, have you ever seen the feet of the poor women that had to wear them! My size 8s would be agony ;)
Wow - its stunning
Really amazing. Also quite fascinating what we humans do in the name of beauty and tradition.
Ohh wow! That is so interesting....Not something you see everyday x
So diddy. It looks like a child's shoe
That's a shoe, but I am not sure from when, history wise. Rather interesting and delicate looking, though. Uncomfortable too, I imagine!
Beautiful but no doubt very painful.
Now that does not look all that comfortable...
Gorgeous! Is it a shoe? It looks like the tiny shoes women used to wear when they had their feet bound #silentsunday
