Last, Shoe
Shoe last, Canterbury, NH
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 where there is an off-center tube hole. Below the top there is a through-hole. From the top the heel curve extends to the seat. The heel curve is duller in color than the rest of the last. 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.
