Shoe - making is an important collection in my bronzes family collection hall.

Shoehorn

Commonly known as "shoeshine", "shoes slide", "shoe support", "shoe prying", "shoe climbing" and so on, is a tool for pulling shoes.

Most of the petals of a magnolia like a bloom are usually 12 to 13 centimeters long, 3 to 4 centimeters wide, concave, and the upper end is small, easy to handle, and the handle is worn through the eyes and can be hung.

When you wear tight shoes, put them in the heel of your shoes and lift them up so that shoes can be put on smoothly.

According to legend, Chinese shoes have a history of more than 4000 years.

The shoe was born with shoes and shoes, and shoes are the auxiliary tools for shoes.

It originated from cloth, cloth and fingers.

At first, when people wear shoes, they insert their fingers into the heel and force the heel into the shoes.

Later, it was invented to stitch cloth and cloth into the back of cloth shoes (including children's shoes and embroidered shoes), and lift them up with their hands when wearing shoes. This is the prototype of the shoe boot.

Before liberation, shoes were widely used in almost every household or hotel or inn.

After liberation, to date, it is difficult to see its appearance due to the lack of cloth shoes and embroidered shoes.

At present, a shoe and professional shop is not found in Shanghai. It is only occasionally seen at the dispenser store or on the stalls of old goods that its gaunt face is not attractive.

In addition, some large hotels are also equipped with plastic shoes for use by passengers.

It is reported that many countries in the United States, France, Japan, Russia, Pakistan, Vietnam and other countries are still using shoes and boots widely.

I have been collecting shoes and shoes for more than 10 years.

In the old society, the family had no money to buy shoes. One day, I went to the suburbs of Jiangwan railway station to collect cinder. My right wrist was punctured by a piece of glass head.

Later, my father made a pair of special straw sandals for the safety of my feet.

Shanghai was liberated, and my poor child turned over to be the master of the family, and gradually sprouted the idea of collecting shoes in order to bear in mind the hardships of childhood.

One day, on a stall, I found a white copper engraved shoe and shoe, which was very popular and bought it.

It enlightens me: shoes and shoes are like twin brothers. There are so many shoes left behind in history that they are small and light, and easy to collect and store.

From then on, I started my shoe collecting career.

Today, I have collected hundreds of various kinds of shoes and shoes, mostly antiques in late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China.

These sentimental objects are the proof of these historical periods, and let us know how our predecessors lived, and what their living environment and way of life looked like.

In a sense, collection is the restoration of history and culture.

Although the shoe is small, it is also an important part of the shoe culture.
