1952 · leather · Costume Institute

This pump possess a level of detail found only on the higher quality products, such as those manufactured by Andrew Geller, a high-end New York company for women's dress shoes. Annotated as having been inspired by a "peasant costume", the design was most probably developed from an object in the the Brooklyn Museum's Design Lab.
