Description
When asked to picture Abraham Lincoln, you likely envision his usual public image defined by his signature stovepipe hat. At the Cottage, though, we get to know more about Lincoln’s private, more casual nature and style. Lincoln’s meetings at the Cottage were often impromptu and informal, and Lincoln was known to greet guests while wearing carpet slippers. We have teamed up with Stubbs and Wootton, purveyors of luxury slippers, to recreate these famous slippers. The iconic slipper is embroidered in your choice of either: velvet, linen, or flax fabric.
*Please note: As the Lincoln slippers are custom made for each order, delivery is between 7-9 weeks after an order is placed.

When looking at the photos, I thought "oh, how cute . . " and then I saw the price.
You won't find a pair of these in my collection.
