Gauntlet in the Royal Armouries Museum Leeds.

Gloves, Gauntlets and Mittens

All my gloves are made to fit and are hand sewn with linen or silk thread. They are made using period patterns and have kidney shaped thumb holes and long forchets (the piece between the fingers) which make the fingers appear longer. They can be made from a variety of different leathers and in a number of different styles.
