Women's Tin Ceiling Tooled Baba £290
Limited to 50 pairs as part of our Collector's Series | Inspired by the patterns found in tin ceilings across NYC, we developed this design as a block print and then translated into a Baba using a rare hand-tooling technique. Commonly found on cowboy boots, tooling refers to embellishment of leather through carving, stamping and engraving by hand. It's intricate, tedious and time consuming -- a skill passed down through generations and increasingly difficult to come by. Specifically, our design was tooled by skilled artisans in León, Mexico before being crafted into a Baba in El Paso, TX.
