Child's clog
notes: label: Description
content: These children’s clogs are made of wood and have a 1/14” thick cut out arch. The tops of the shoes are covered with a thin layer of bright mosaic made of wheat straw. The instep strap is made of crude bast and is covered in red leather. These shoes are a part of a collection of footwear amassed by Frank G. Carpenter over the duration of 40 years of world travel. The collection was donated to the museum by his daughter, Francis Huntington, in 1926. The collection of shoes compiled by Carpenter provides not only unique examples of footwear around the globe, but the increasingly globalized landscape of the turn of the century.
