A distinctive vintage long-handled shoe horn combining a dark, finely ribbed wood shaft with warm brass-toned fittings and sculptural details. The upper handle is cast in the form of a stylized human leg and foot, giving this otherwise utilitarian object an unusual figurative quality.
The opposite end terminates in a smooth elongated shoe horn with a warm golden-brown finish. Brass collars transition neatly between the shaft and sculptural ends. Its extended length was designed to allow shoes to be put on while standing or with minimal bending.
Both functional and decorative, this piece would display particularly well in an entryway, dressing room, or alongside a collection of vintage gentleman’s accessories.
