Antique Gold Embroidered Woman’s Velvet Slippers: C19th Philippines wedding and would make a uniqueItem Details. From the Far East, possibly the Philippines a pair of fine hand embroidered black velvet slippers dating from the second half of the 19th century. I often wish that the things that we buy would speak and tell us a story. And amazingly these do!
