Bird of Paradise Hand-embroidery Flat Mules

Size 36

Birds of a feather flock together.

Sultan Abdülhamid was an avid bird collector. One time, Japanese Emperor Mikado sent him a precious gift: a collection of the rarest birds from the empire of the rising sun. These slippers reflect the mysterious daydreams the Sultan must have had observing those exotic birds.

Point-toe, hand-embroidery flat mules cut from Velvet Fabric.

All of their materials are locally and ethically sourced for the finest quality.

The embroidered surfaces of their shoes are made of either velvet or Kutnu fabric, a natural blend of cotton in the warp and pure silk in the weft. 

The soles, insoles, and lining of their slippers and mules are made of genuine leather.

Hand-crafted and hand-embroidered in Istanbul, Turkey.

Different parts of this shoe is made by different artisans.

This piece is made completely by hand using decades-old techniques, patterns, and equipment.

It takes 7 to 20 working days to make this item, depending on the complexity of the design.
