Akhal Tekè is a collection of dreamy shoes rooted in the art of hand-made embroideries. The combination of colours and high quality materials make reference to the "Made in Italy" excellence. The brand name is inspired by his majesty Akhal Tekè, the golden horse, the athlete with the silk coat. The most beautiful and ancient horse on earth, ridden by emperors and amazonians. From the prosperous oasis located in the middle of Karakum desert, the Akhal Valley in Turkmenistan, this paradise is the land of the Turkmen tribe, the Tekè, famous for their beautiful and high quality embroideries and jewels, which also used to decorate horses.

History

Collection

Slipper, a flat model with a bon ton allure and a tapered tip, it is made using the “Sacchetto Process” which entails a separate application of the lining skin, built as a “glove” on the shoe shape and closed like a bag on the foot. The upper part of the shoe is completely seamless and guarantees the utmost flexibility and softness. The shoe also provides additional comfort with a latex buffer inserted in the heel. The attention to detail and the use of precious materials such as suedes, satin, net and canvas are combined with sophisticated embroideries that are rigorously hand-made, with small beads, cuts, stones, raphia, tubes, cornely and thread.

Flat Mule, for an easygoing variation much more feminine, with a tapered tip and adorned with sophisticated handmade embroideries. Available in precious materials as suede, satin, net and cavas in a selected palette of colours: raspberry, turquoise, acid green, lemon, nude, beige, blue and black.
