Last, Shoe

Description

Wood block cut in the form of a shoe. The last has an almond-shaped toe. The height of the last increases toward the instep then plateaus at the top in an elongated oval shape. Below the top there is a through-hole. From the top the heel curve extends to the seat. There is a piece of leather attached to the seat at the heel with wooden pegs. The seat sides are curved to form the waist before growing to the widest point at the last joints then tapering to form the toe.
