During the 18th and 19th Centuries it was common to place a well worn child’s shoe in weak spots of one’s house, doors, windows or chimneys as a token of good luck upon the house and to ward off evil spirits. The shoe was believed to carry the good spirits of the wearer. In later years with many people working in factories, often working with metal, people began to make boots out of scraps of metal as fireplace ornaments to continue this tradition. The boots were made from discarded scraps of metal, mostly brass but often copper and aluminum too. These wonderful ornaments are a wonderful testament to the folk traditions of Britain.
