A rose, by an other name would smell as sweet.' That may be so, but our Rose fingerless glove is charming, elegant and oh so pretty and unmistakeably 'Cornelia James'. There is something of the Sunday afternoon about Rose.
Bracelet Length. This is a 5 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
