Drawn from the hauntingly beautiful 1895 illustration Die Gänsehirtin am Brunnen (Goose-Girl at the Well, a Brothers Grimm story) by R. Leinweber and Moritz Michael, this design splits itself like a memory—clothed on one side, bared on the other. The result feels like a portal: part fairy tale, part fever dream.

The engraving conjures the feeling of forgotten folklore whispered at the edge of a forest. The girl kneels at the well amid scattered skulls and weathered stone, her long hair falling like water. On one side, she’s shrouded in fabric and restraint. On the other, she’s unhidden—vulnerable, primal, almost ghostly. The design echoes this duality with perfect tension: the remembered self versus the revealed one.

The gold dust kissed background gives the boots a dreamy, other-worldly tone, while the illustration feels etched into the surface like an ancient curse or spell. These are not just fairy tale shoes. These are relics of a deeper story—one that begins when the heroine looks into the well and doesn’t blink.

Wonders Whispered About These Wares

Powers Bestowed Upon the Possessor

Watcher’s Resilience – The silent strength to bear witness to loss, grief, and transformation without looking away.

Wellborn Memory – The deep, mythic recall of forgotten selves, hidden truths, and ancient bargains.

Veilpiercer’s Gaze – The quiet ability to see what lies beneath surfaces—water, ash, bone—and recognize what others refuse to name.

Jaded Lament Discovery Note

According to archival fragments, the Goose-Girl was not just a story, but a test. Some say the well was real. Some say it wasn’t water at the bottom, but ash. And some say the bones were offerings.

  • Silent transformation
  • Melancholy mythology

These Vibes Shall Be the Emanation

These boots feel like folklore rewritten as confession. The girl at the well is not passive—she is bearing witness. The imagery blends vulnerability and quiet defiance, contrasting the clothed modesty of one side with the strange bareness of the other. It evokes a tale that was never meant to be comforting. It's a prayer spoken into water. It's what happens after the story ends.

Hymns to Strengthen Thy Enchanted Relic

Lend Thine Ear, Fortify Thy Powers. Invoke these chants whilst donning thy wares, that the enchantment might seep deeper into thy bones.

(1) "Teeth in the Grass" – Iron & Wine
A hushed, earthy meditation filled with unseen dangers, whispered prayers, and tender dread.

(2) "Unearth" – Agnes Obel
Ghostly, elegant, and carved in minor keys—like finding something sacred and buried in the dark.

(3) "In Dreams" – Ben Howard
Luminous melancholy soaked in memory and myth, moving like ripples across a still pond.

(4) "Shadowshow" – Anna von Hausswolff
A surreal and aching dirge—ceremonial, eerie, and stitched with half-lost spells.

(5) "Song for the Dead" – Desert Sessions
Gritty, strange, and slow-burning—a haunted, sun-bleached hymn that could be sung at the lip of a well.

This mix captures eerie resilience, hidden sorrow, mythic grief, and the haunting stillness of standing alone before something sacred and strange.
