Description

Wood block cut in the form of a shoe. The last has a square toe, from which the instep slopes upward and then plateaus at the top. Below the top is a through-hole. From the top the heel curve extends to the seat. The seat sides are curved to form the waist, grows to the widest point at the joints, and then tapers to form the toe. The seat has very few nail holes spread out over the seat.
