Imogen is a glove which is dear to our hearts and a glove which will take you anywhere. It’s practical enough to be an ‘everyday’ glove - robust, warm and delightfully comfortable. But the bow that we have cleverly insinuated into the cuff adds a touch that makes this glove perfect for special occasions. If you are thinking of buying your first pair of ‘proper’ gloves, then this is the glove for you.
Wrist Length. 2 inch glove. This is measured from where the thumb seam meets the wrist, to the opening of the glove.
Our pure wool gloves are cut from a super fine jersey Merino wool. We make them in exactly the same way that we make all our gloves - 2 metres of painstaking stitching that joins tranks, fourchettes and thumbs. The end product is a pair of gloves that is beautifully styled, built to last and warm. The perfect Autumn/Winter glove.
Merino is the quiet overachiever of natural fibres — warm when it’s cold, cool when it’s warm, and elegant all year round. What makes it special is not just how it performs, but how little it needs in return.
Merino likes simplicity. Wash it gently, dry it slowly, and give it room to remember its shape.
Wash by hand, always in lukewarm water, and keep movement minimal. Press in a towel and lay flat to dry. While damp, ease the gloves back into their form. The fibre knows what to do — it just needs your help getting there.
Hand wash with pure soap flakes. Rinse, press gently, and dry flat. Avoid friction, hanging, or heat.
If your gloves feel tight, flat or lose stretch, a wool care expert can revive their natural resilience without disturbing the knit.
Handmade in Sussex, England
The Finishing Touch
Every pair of gloves is delivered with care. Wrapped within our premium gift box, accompanied by a complimentary dust bag and handwritten note. It doesn’t get more personal than that.

These are very cute, nice snug fit and see like they will be reasonably warm as far as dress gloves go.

The Imogen black merino wool made-to-order gloves fit beautifully-- as the saying goes, like a glove! Gloves with a fit this good are transforming! They actually make my hands look smaller, daintier. I know now one reason why the Royals look so Royal-- its the gloves!

The gloves fit snuggly and accommodate my wonky fingers easily. The side bow on the wrist is a delightful touch. These gloves are going to give a lot of pleasure.

Customer service is incredible. Quality of material and workmanship is unsurpassed. My size 8 gloves are a little short in the fingers though. I don’t have this problem with other models and materials in gloves I’ve ordered from Cornelia James.

The gloves are beautiful and as elegant as a pair of leather gloves. They arrived in a very nice gift box that I will keep and use for storage. Could not have been more pleased with my purchase unless it was cold outside.
