Made from sumptuous shimmering black suede, and feature a jewelled heel with a floral motif using hand-cut iridescent ivory mother of pearl and set in black resin using a traditional Japanese technique called Kintsugi. Part of our Limited Edition of collectable jewelled heels, these luxurious and ornate 'Mineko' black ankle boots feature a carefully crafted pearl floral pattern on the heel. Made using hand-inlaid pieces of mother of pearl, the unique design is set in resin. Heel: Mother of Pearl, Resin Upper Material: Suede Sole: Leather Special Memory Foam and Kid Leather Lining Each piece of Mother of Pearl is individually and carefully hand-cut, before being applied to the heel with resin. As a material it is exceptionally durable, and used on the heel of the shoe means they will remain clean and unlikely to damage easily. Our Mother Of Pearl heel can be wiped clean should it be dirtied. Whilst the nature of the Mother of Pearl makes them highly durable, they are not indestructible. Wear on outside surfaces such as concrete may cause damage to the heels. You will find your Freya Rose shoes have a protective layer on the sole, when trying on your shoes for the first time please keep this on and stand in a carpeted area, this can be removed once you are sure you wish to keep your beautiful shoes. If you decide to return or exchange your shoes the protective layer will need to remain on and your shoes will need to be in the condition you received them in.
