Description
A stylish and well-preserved pair of mid-20th-century ladies' court shoes by Ravne, dating from around 1945 to 1955.
Made from genuine crocodile skin, these elegant shoes feature a classic pointed toe and modest heel, capturing the refined silhouette popular in the immediate post-war period.
The uppers display the distinctive scaled pattern of crocodile leather, with a rich tan hue and a natural patina developed over decades.
The insoles are gold-stamped with the maker’s name, RAVNE, and the shoes retain their original plastic shoe trees.
Condition is good overall for their age, with some wear to the interior lining and heel tips, as shown in the photographs.
The crocodile skin remains supple and attractive, showing the depth of character one expects from true vintage exotic leather.
