This is a super cool cast aluminum ladies Victorian boot. This is offered as is, so please examine all photos closely. It is painted black with white painted buttons. There are no cracks, dents, and only very slight rust around the top rim. The paint is still very nice with some light scratches from age. My assumption is that it's a salesman sample or advertising piece. It is marked EMIC & P1 on bottom. It has so many cool decorating possibilities. This is a great vintage item in nice original condition. Enjoy!
