Artifact Description

The artifact that I chose for my movie is a pair of my high-heeled shoes. Vera Wang is the designer of these heels. The heels of the shoes are approximately two inches high and get skinnier towards the bottom. They are black with silver rhinestone embellishments and beads. There is a tiny opening near the feet to give it an "open-toed" shoe look. There is an elastic strap attached to the shoe for the heel to fit around. Where the elastic is attached to the material of the heel, there is a silver pin on either side to hold it together.  The material of the shoes is a rough fabric and has a hint of sparkle to it to make it shine. There is a white tag on the flat part of the heel that says "Simply Vera Wang" to shoe who designed the shoes. On the inside of the shoe, it gives the size, serial numbers, and the name of the store where the shoes were purchased. The platform of the shoe is made of thick black material and is curved to give the heel support. Faded white lines can be seen on the platform as well; perhaps indicating there are multiple layers of material that are binded together. There is also a tiny opening on either side where the decorative part and the side of the shoe meet. Below is two photographs of my shoes taken by me:
