      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.

      Ultraviolet

      The cotton for these gloves is Ultraviolet Protection Factor 50+, the highest level of protection against the effects of the Sun's UV rays. Our cotton is effective at blocking both UVA and UVB.

      About 5 percent of UV rays are UVB. They have higher energy levels than UVA rays, and typically damage the outermost layers of your skin, causing sunburn. These rays directly damage DNA and are the cause of most skin cancers. The other 95 percent are UVA rays - these can pass through glass (such as a car windshield) and penetrate your skin more deeply, causing your skin cells to age.

      Our cotton blocks both UVA and UVB to the highest measured standard (UPF50+), making these gloves effective at providing all round protection against the sun.

      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
      6½

      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

      Named for Cornelia's granddaughter - Leonora. This glove is sweet and stylish. Made in our sueded cotton and finished with a button cuff link, for those occasions when only gold buttons will fit the bill . It's a glove that you can wear everyday but which will measure up when something a little bit special is required. The buttons are embossed to celebrate the founding of the business by Cornelia in 1946.

      Dimensions
      Wrist Length. Leonora is a 1.75 inch glove. This is measured from where the thumb seam meets the wrist, to the opening of the glove.

      If you unsure which colour or fabric will best work with your outfit, we recommend ordering fabric swatches. Our swatches are 4 inches x 6 inches. The amount you pay (including shipping) is reimbursed to you straightaway as store credit, which can be used against any future orders you place with us. If you prefer a colour which we don't have as standard, we do offer a bespoke dyeing service - please contact us.
