Last, Shoe

Description

Wood block cut in the form of a shoe. The last has an almond-shaped toe. From the toe to the ball, on either side of the last, there are wooden pegs in an irregular oval shape. The height of the last increases toward the instep then plateaus at the top in an elongated oval shape. From the top the heel curve extends to the seat. On either side of the heel there are three wooden pegs in a slight diagonal line. 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.
