These shoe trees (or shoe stretchers, shoe stays, shoe lasts) were popular in the 20's and 30's, but we're dating these to approximately vintage 1940's. They're quite functional, with a flexible metal strip covered in ruched pink and blue satin, tipped with pink painted wooden ends, and finished off satin rosettes and gold metallic stitching. And while we're not sure it's the original box, it's the right size and quite pretty.
