There is 'something of the night' about black lace but Ella is a whole lot more than just a 'night club glove'. Black lace can be one of the most versatile fabrics and can add a twist of style to the most simple of outfits. This glove will not disappoint. Unfussy and only in black.
Wrist Length. This is a 3 inch glove. This is measured from where the thumb seam meets the wrist, to the opening of the glove.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Handmade in Sussex, England

I obviously have never felt Royal until now!!! I thoroughly enjoyed unwrapping my handmade gloves; down to the hand written welcome letter to the tiniest label that stated who made them and who checked for any errors. I am sold!!! I will forever shop with Cornelia James and will absolutely recommend your company to anyone shopping for gloves. What a wonderful experience!! Receiving my gloves truly made my day! This company is THE BEST!!

I initially hesitated to order these as I was worried about the lace getting snagged or being itchy, but I kept coming back to them every time I visited the site so I just had to order them. They arrived within a week and I am absolutely thrilled with them. Like all the gloves I have ordered from Cornelia James, the Ella I Lace Glove is very well-made, elegant, and beautiful. They fit perfectly and are not itchy at all. I’m so glad I ordered them and I cannot wait until the weather is warm enough to wear them!
