I found this 'jewel' encrusted shoe in damp sand just above the high tide line on a Perth beach this morning. It's 50mm long, weighs 30.24 grams and appears to be silver-plated on brass, with an enamelled lining. There are no imprints or markings of any kind. At the top of the heel there are two tiny, rough projections, possible remnants of a broken-off mounting loop.
It seems too heavy for a necklace, could it be a cake decoration perhaps?
