About the Item
Charming, quirky, and incredibly practical, this vintage solid brass boot jack is shaped like a whimsical insect, with long curling antennae that cleverly function as boot-removing levers. Made in Canada in the 1970s, this sculptural piece brings both character and utility to your entryway or mudroom.
Stamped "CANADA" on the underside and still bearing its original maker’s sticker, this brass bug is not just a conversation starter—it’s a handy tool that makes removing shoes and boots easier, especially during winter months. Its sturdy weight keeps it grounded while in use.
The piece has developed a beautiful natural patina over time, adding to its vintage charm, but we’re happy to polish it for a brighter look at no additional cost—just let us know your preference at checkout.
In excellent vintage condition.
