Santa Cruz MAH - Beaded dress shoe

This sleek black leather shoe originates from the Santa Cruz Museum of Art and History, specifically crafted in 1863 by Farr, Haas & Co. in Allentown, Pennsylvania, as clearly marked on the insole. Constructed with precision, this shoe and its counterpart, a black boot showcased last week, have proven to be some of the most demanding models I've ever tackled, particularly when it comes to mesh and texture manipulation. It's clear that working with black leather poses significant challenges. For more information about the shoe company, visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farr_Building_(Allentown_Pennsylvania).
