Make a statement with these so beautiful, elegant handcrafted sandals in metallic leather, featuring handsewen tiny glass beads various sizes and colors dancing together in harmony.
They will become your perfect summer accessory, that will carry you from brunch dates to dinner parties but also during all day time activities.
♥ These leather flip flops (sandals - santalia in Greece), are made by high quality calf leather, which, because it's handmade, has it's natural marks and texture (especially in beige), which make every pair of the sandals unique, apart my crafting and beading.The bottom part is made of anatomic rubber sole for extra comfort.
They get darker as time goes by and they get the shape of the foot since natural leather always stretches out.
They were worn (the plain ones) by some of the biggest names in Art and show-biz including the Beatles, Jackie Onassis, Rudolf Nureyev, Sophia Loren and they are based on the footwear of Socrates, Plato, Pericles, Achilles and Helen of Troy.
“Thalia” Pink Metalic Leather Sandals
Avoid getting them wet in sea water, but if you do rinse them out under a faucet, let them dry and then smear regular baby oil to soften them up. Baby oil makes them soft and dark where as sea water makes them very dark and stiff. Keep them away from heat radiators and especially puppies as well as some adult dogs (they love them!!!).
