Leonora | Sueded Cotton Day Glove – Ascot Grey
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.
Wrist Length. 2 inch glove. This is measured from where the thumb seam meets the wrist, to the opening of the glove.
Our Sueded, Supima Cotton is grown in the San Joaquin Valley of California, knitted into cotton jersey in Derbyshire, England, then expertly brushed to provide that lovely, sueded feeling. As well as being the absolute classic day glove material, the cotton is rated UPF50+ for ultraviolet protection.
If you'd like to see a swatch of this material in this colour before you decide, you can order one here.
There’s an ease to sueded cotton — soft from the first touch, never flashy, always comfortable. It doesn’t need to be babied, just respected. With the right rhythm of care, this glove keeps its shape and surface for years.
Sueded cotton thrives on quiet consistency. No stress, no shortcuts — just warmth and calm.
Let It Soak
Hand washing works best. Let the gloves rest in warm water with a mild soap, and move them gently. Don’t twist or scrub. Once clean, press between towels and reshape them while still damp. Dry flat and let gravity do the rest.
Care Method
Wash by hand in warm water with pure soap flakes. Rinse well. Press in a towel to remove excess water. Lay flat to dry and reshape while damp. Avoid heat and machines.
When Softness Begins to Fade
If the cotton begins to stiffen or lose its brushed feel, a professional with experience in natural textiles can restore the softness without overhandling the surface.
Handmade in Sussex, England

Attractive cotton gloves I can drive in.
The gloves come up above my wrist which is what I wanted for sun protection. They are very comfortable and attractive with gold button detail. The fabric is substantial but still wearable in the very hot Florida sun. And the packaging was so lovely that I made my husband watch the "unboxing"!

Need to re- order as fingers too long
I love the style and quality and will reorder. I measured per instructions but found the fingers were a “ pinch” too long at each finger tip.
