Embroidery or Gold Work
Although a plain front velvet slipper is unassumingly perfect for the intended wearer, the fine work of embroidery is not to be overlooked, and can be appreciated on the vast majority of our Slipper Collection. The technique is called “Gold Work”. It is thought to have originated in China and spread westwards along the silk route to the Middle East and Europe. There are a number of stitching techniques, but it specifically involves a very fine filament of gold or silver wire, which is tightly wound around a metal spike. This creates a long “spring” with a hollow centre. This particular embroidery technique can only be done by hand as each “bead” is cut and stitch specifically to create each design.

Velvet Slippers
The development of the Albert Slipper coincided with the fashion of men wearing smoking jackets at the turn of the century. It is generally agreed that the style was named after Queen Victoria’s consort Prince Albert. Today however, times are very different but the velvet slipper remain as popular as ever.
