Circa 2003-2005, they were created by the French fashion house during John Galliano’s lauded reign as Creative Director. The sole is carved from wood, as is the towering heel. It has been lacquered to a glamorous high-shine finish and hand-painted with graceful hibiscus flowers in lilac and plum set against vibrant green stalks and metallic gold detailing. The flowers climb up the heel and along the sole. The front strap is crafted from strips of silver metallic leather tied in two knots at the top. These are attached to the wooden sole with silver-toned metal rivets debossed with the “CD” logo. The outsole of the shoe features a rubber front with tread and the Dior logo. There is also a silver-toned plaque with a cut-out Dior logo on the base. The heel has a rubber end too. The shoes are numbered with “1522” which is hand-painted onto the outside of the sole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese shoes have 5” (12cm) heels and are in good to very good vintage condition overall; they present very well when worn. To note: the rubber soles appear to have been lacquered as part of the manufacturing process and this has flaked off in general but some areas remain. There are a few, very small chips to the lacquer of the wood at the front and on the heel. Labelled a size UK 5.5, US 7.5 or EU\/IT 38.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CIRCA VINTAGE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57008224633210,"sku":null,"price":395.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0398\/5978\/1798\/files\/518978beaa953c6bf72c49728dee340f.jpg?v=1782398703","url":"https:\/\/www.circavintage.com\/products\/2000s-galliano-for-dior-hand-painted-wood-and-silver-leather-shoes","provider":"CIRCA VINTAGE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
