Queen Potnia Ballet is a new addition to our family of ballet flats! Hand-embroidered bees and flowers embellish this ballerina flat made of fine, luxurious nappa leather. A fresh take on our classic ballet flats, each Potnia Ballerina is hand embroidered in leather by women who have been embroidering shoes for the Moghul Kings and Queens for over 400 years. Bee motifs are intricately hooked into each upper with precision and dedication, passed down from mother to daughter, continuing the art of dapka embroidery.
Our ballet flats are handmade using luxurious, soft, eco-friendly leathers, which are stitched onto sustainable leather soles for a luxurious feel and ultimate comfort. We work with craftsmen and craftswomen who carry out each step by hand using ancient techniques, creating a couture piece.
