The different cultural and ethnic Cinderella's share many similarities in storylines.  A central theme found in each Cinderella story is the symbol of the glass slipper and its relevance to a happy ending for Cinderella.  Each replica of Cinderella's shoe reflect the ethnic differences in each culture.  The symbolism of the shoe in each culture is comparative across cultures. However, the look and style of each shoe is relevant to the culture it represents.
