We love our Beatrice (meaning - ‘bringer of joy’) glove. This is a glove for those who are passionate about style and elegance but in a completely cool and understated way. It is made from our beautiful merino wool - practical and warm - and complete with a perfectly formed bow on the front of the cuff.
Made From
Our pure wool gloves are cut from a super fine jersey Merino wool. We make them in exactly the same way that we make all our gloves - 2 metres of painstaking stitching that joins tranks, fourchettes and thumbs. The end product is a pair of gloves that is beautifully styled, built to last and warm. The perfect Autumn/Winter glove.

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 |
| Under 5'1" | 6½ |
| 5'1" to 5'6" | 7 |
| 5'7" to 5'8" | 7½ |
| 5'9" to 5'11" | 8 |
| Above 6' | 8½ |
How fast will my gloves arrive?
Most of our gloves are made ‘to order’ but we work swiftly. Our 'time to make' gloves ranges from roughly one to three days, depending on our backlog. If your order is time critical, we offer a 'rush' priority service - you can select this at checkout. Please see checkout options for an accurate total (glovemaking + shipping) delivery time.
Can I return/exchange?
Yes - there is a 60 day window.
Will they fit?
Yes - they will fit like a glove ought to fit. Please take care with the sizing info and, if you have any doubts or concerns, do not hesitate to get in touch. We are here to help and we really want your gloves to fit perfectly.
I'm buying gloves for someone, how can I guess their glove size?
You can make a guess at someone's glove size if you know how tall they are. See our guide here.
One glove or two?
Some people do ask this question! You will receive a pair of gloves.
Not sure about fabric and style - can I speak to a real person?
Of course! Contact us via phone, email, WhatsApp or Instagram during UK business hours. And, of course, via our new video consultation service.
Can I have a personal message included?
Yes - we send a handwritten note with all orders. Let us know if we should write something special.
What gloves will work best with my dress?
Send us a photo and we will get back to you. We also offer video link style consultations. You can book a slot here. We can send fabric swatches to make your choice of gloves easier.
Can I order a selection and send some back?
Yes, you can.
Can I order a bespoke length?
Yes. This may make the purchase non refundable.
Can I order a bespoke colour?
Yes, we work with a very good dyeing house.
Can I wear my engagement ring over my gloves?
You can - gloves made from Tulle or Silk are fine enough for rings - but it is traditional for engagement and wedding rings to be worn next to the skin.
Where are the gloves made?
All our fabric gloves are made right here in our atelier in Sussex, England. Our leather gloves are made by our partners in Naples, Italy.
Do you have a shop?
No - but you are welcome to visit us in Sussex. Be sure to call first. We are about 90 minutes by car from London. Alternatively, if you are visiting the UK and short of time, we can usually deliver to your hotel/UK address 'next day'.
We offer our Merino Wool and Cashmere gloves with an optional touchscreen friendly feature. We do this by hand embroidering little stars in silver thread into the thumb and index finger of both gloves.
With touchscreen friendly gloves, the key requirement is for conductivity that will allow the naturally occurring electric charge in your finger to pass through the glove to the screen of your device - and silver is an excellent conductor.
How well does this work?
This is intended to work well for simple interactions with your device - making and receiving calls, playing your favourite podcast. For detailed interactions like sending a text message, you'll want to take your gloves off.
Will this work with my screen protector?
- Please note: this does not work well with some silicone screen protectors
- However this does work well with glass screen protectors

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.
