Quswa Wholecut
Dress Shoes for Q by Qs
The Quswa wholecut was inspired by the historical battle of Badr, represented by hand carved Arabic Calligxraphitti encryption on high grade Italian leather. Designer Que Shebley states "here are 5 version series of the Quswa wholecut as each design released continues the originating encryption as a whole, the encryption signifies one of the most significant moments of the battle". The design is hand painted in layers with a patina technique. The sole hand made with a beveled waist closed channel with metal toe taps for that extra aristocrat feel. A true master piece and a must see.

Production Technology
Hand cut by mastery cutters from tanned high grade italian calf leather, the pattern than is hand carved with the arabic calligxraphitti, than assembled and connected by hand to the sole. the leather sections are than hand painted into multi layers with the patina technique including adding the base color, than secondary and third depending on the pattern’s need and color absorbability to the leather. A unqiue hand bleaching technique is than used to create the aging like effect and brush stroke feel, giving it an amazing antique like finish.
Design Challenge
The challenges come from perfection the right mold of the shoe and design as well as the pattern and exact placement of the seams. Many prototypes are made to finalize the right cut, size and stitch line end of each pattern to end with the best design aesthetic to the foot. Other challenges include perfecting the patina painting on each Part separately while creating a consistency for each color and piece in the pattern, as well as layering perfectly each pattern layer without over whelming the leather so that it keeps its natural supple and new exterior. Also perfecting the placement of the calligxraphitti is challenging since certain leathers should be more visible than others for aesthetics and significance reasons. It is as you are working almost the same as on human skin, you have to be very carefull as any mark will show and it doesn't heal.
