Pair Of Art Deco Mules – Orientalist/ottoman Style – Blue Silk Velvet & Gold Embroidery

A splendid pair of Art Deco women's mules, influenced by the Orientalist aesthetic popular in the early 20th century. Crafted from deep blue silk velvet, they are richly adorned with gold metallic embroidery depicting stylized floral motifs and arabesques in relief. The openwork design and the use of small embroidered buttons enhance their handcrafted and luxurious appearance. This type of mule was highly prized in the 1920s and 1930s, both for bourgeois interiors and elegant outfits inspired by the Ottoman Orient, reflecting the fascination with exoticism in the decorative arts following the Colonial Exposition and the influence of designers like Paul Poiret.
