Rose | Lace Short Fingerless Glove

Size

We make our gloves in hand sizes from 6 to 8½. To find your glove size, pass a tape measure around the widest part of your hand - usually over your knuckles, excluding the thumb. The result, in inches, is your glove size. If you are between two sizes, round down to the lower. 

Here is how you convert from centimetres to inches:
Glove size Inches Centimetres
6 6 15.2
16.5
7 7 17.8
19
8 8 20.3

How do I guess someone's glove size?

If you are buying gloves for someone and don't know their glove size (and don't want to ruin the surprise), their height can indicate their most likely glove size. Please note, this is statistically most likely but won't be correct 100% of the time.

Applies to women only

Height Most likely glove size

Description
A rose, by an other name would smell as sweet.' That may be so, but our Rose fingerless glove is charming, elegant and oh so pretty and unmistakeably 'Cornelia James'. There is something of the Sunday afternoon about Rose.
Material: Fine Lace

Our beautiful lace comes from France and Austria: two houses who have, like us, remained steadfast in their commitment to traditional methods of craftsmanship. The use of nineteenth century looms gives it that extra fine detail we hold so dear to our hearts.

Dimensions

Bracelet Length. This is a 5 inch glove. This is measured from where the thumb seam meets the wrist, to the opening of the glove.


Lace Care

Lace is more than decoration — it’s memory. A lace glove feels almost weightless on the hand, but never invisible. It’s feminine, intricate, and timelessly formal. Still, despite its delicacy, lace can be remarkably resilient when treated with a light touch.

It doesn’t need special treatment — just thoughtful handling and space to move.

Let It Unfold

Machine washing is possible, but only on the gentlest cycle and always within a delicates bag. Give lace the space it needs. Don’t crowd the drum, and don’t rush the drying. Once clean, lay the gloves flat and let them breathe. Trims and bows may need a moment of reshaping by hand — nothing more.

Care Method

Wash cold on a delicate cycle inside a mesh bag. Dry flat. Reshape by hand. Avoid friction, heat, or spin cycles that may damage trims.

When Detail Needs Preserving

For lace gloves with vintage embroidery, beading or fragile structure, a professional cleaner familiar with bridal or formal accessories can refresh them safely and beautifully.

Our glovemaking

The hub of our glovemaking operation is a small, flint walled building that was built some 150 years ago to house dairy cows. All around us are pastures. A mile to the south, the green hills of the South Downs separate us from the salt seas of the English Channel.

It takes a lot to make a good pair of gloves. Great fabrics, selected with great care from mills large and small, skill and people with a passion for making things just right.

Almost everything we make is made to order. So that the person who is making your gloves knows exactly what you want in terms of glove size, style and dimensions.  They will also know your name and you will know theirs because, when they’ve finished your gloves and they’re completely happy with them, they will sign the tag to say so.

It’s Complimentary, Always

Alterations & Customisations

Alterations

If you would like to have the length of this glove adjusted made longer or shorter than normal, we can normally accommodate that. Please just contact us to confirm before ordering.

Swatches

If you would like to see cuttings of our materials & colours before ordering your gloves, we can arrange that. The amount you spend on swatches and shipping is refunded to you as store credit straightaway, which you can use against your eventual order. Go here to order your swatches.

Dyeing

Depending on the material of glove you are choosing, we can normally offer a dyeing service to achieve a very close match with the rest of your outfit. It adds a small amount to the turnaround time - normally 7 working days to be safe. The cost for this service is around £130. Just contact us if this is of interest.
