Cream strappy block-heel mules with metal trim

Clothing/Dress/Costume

Pair of women's backless, square-open-toe high-heeled mules (slides) in cream/ivory patent leather with a now heavily crackled (craquelure) surface finish. The instep is crossed by several slim straps, the segments joined and accented by small polished silver-tone metal connectors (tube/oval bars), with squared metal-capped strap ends. Footbeds are leather, soiled with wear. Heels are tall, chunky, slightly flared block heels covered in matching cream leather over a black-edged sole.

Belonged to María A. Arús Caraballo, who said to have purchased them in a state stores.

Women's strappy evening mules. The square toe, multi-strap vamp with minimal metal hardware, and chunky covered block heel are hallmarks of the 1970s.
