This is a pair of Vintage/Primitive Ice Skates With Leather Straps from before the 1900s. These are the real thing! These are a very early, rare pair with great patina and in remarkable shape. 

These ice skates were manufactured by the European company A. K. HOEKSTRA & Co before the 20th century (1860-1920). Probably Dutch. They have the original wood base and metal blades. The leather straps in the back are original; the front are not original, but are also very, very old. RARELY can you find ice skates in such great shape that are over 100 years old.

The blade skates are marked with "L" and "R" for left and right foot.  There are buckles on the straps. They have only a few nicks and scratches even after years of skating.  Each blade is stamped "A.K. HOEKSTRA & CO WARGA" Above the name is a tiny logo of one skate with a small crown above the skate.

Perfect for any collector/sports enthusiast and wonderful décor for a lodge/farmhouse/cabin. Or display them with your Christmas decorations. Or hang them on the wall of your man cave/sports room. 

These skates have been living near a ski resort North of Santa Fe for over 50 years. Who owned them before that, only God knows. They are very cool!
