Emilie | Classic Leather Glove – Cognac
Emilie is a classic leather glove done right. Simplicity and charm in wrist length nappa leather. The 3 points and a side vent adds elegance to your everyday wardrobe and the glove is lined in pure silk for easy wearing. A classic winner.
Wrist Length. 2 inch glove. This is measured from where the thumb seam meets the wrist, to the opening of the glove.
Ethiopian Cabretta leather, derived from the highland hair sheep of Ethiopia’s pristine plateaus, is revered as the world’s finest glovemaking material. Its unparalleled softness, achieved through the hide’s fine grain and natural suppleness, drapes the hand like a second skin, while its remarkable durability ensures timeless elegance. Expertly tanned using age-old techniques, this leather offers a flawless balance of breathability and grip, making it the choice of connoisseurs for gloves that embody sophistication and precision.
The more you wear them, the better they look. That’s why leather gloves aren’t just accessories — they’re something personal. They soften with your every movement, remember your shape, and gain character over time. They don’t ask for much, just that you handle them with care, not control.
A mark or a bit of weather isn’t a tragedy — it’s part of the story. But when they need your help, leather gloves respond best to time and restraint. No rubbing, no shortcuts, and certainly no heat.
Let It Breathe
Forget conditioners and quick fixes. To lift a mark, dust on a touch of talcum powder, smooth it with a dry cloth, and leave it be for a couple of days. If your gloves get wet, blot gently, reshape them softly, and let them dry at their own pace — away from the radiator, the sun, or any artificial heat.
Care Method
Apply talcum powder over marks with a dry cloth. Leave for 48 hours, then dust off gently. If wet, blot carefully, reshape, and air dry naturally. Never fold or store while damp.
For Deeper Care
If your gloves become stiff, lose their shape or develop persistent stains, a leather care specialist can restore their structure and surface without compromising their character.

Emilie Classic Leather Glove in Cognac
These leather gloves are so soft and supple. As the days are getting colder, I have found them so useful. Right away, I was able to use them. I happen to have a pink raincoat and the cognac/brown color coordinated beautifully. I happened to have a navy blue & dark blue outfit under my pink coat and for some reason the color just looked great. The gloves kept my hands warm and just seemed to melt into the pockets when I was indoors. Good thing there are zippers on my coat pockets so that I will not lose the gloves. As they are so soft; especially after being warmed up by my hands. Thank you so much for offering such a great product.

Chic and warm
These gloves are absolutely gorgeous, with the same impeccable quality I've come to expect from Cornelia James. They are the fifth pair I've purchased, but the first in leather. After wearing "regular" mass market leather gloves for so long, these really do "fit like a glove" and are so warm, without being bulky like so many leather gloves can be. I purchased them in the cognac colorway, which is not as orange-ish as it looks on my screen--it's a very pretty color.
