"In her eyes I see something more beautiful than the stars". Desdemona is the classic, full length opera glove in pure silk jersey. Silk jersey is a perfect fabric for gloves. It is 100% silk but has a natural elasticity which means that it clings like a glove should cling, feels marvellous on the arm and has a quiet lustre that speaks volumes.
Longitud de la ópera. Se trata de una 16 pulgadas guante. Se mide desde donde la costura del pulgar se une con la muñeca, hasta la abertura del guante.
Durante siglos, la seda ha seguido siendo un material importante para la fabricación de guantes. Su bello tacto y aspecto le han proporcionado una gran reputación desde los tiempos de reyes y reinas. Nuestro suave punto de pura seda mantiene la tradición y sigue siendo usado por la realeza hoy en día.
If you'd like to see a swatch of this material in this colour before you decide, you can order one here.
La seda no grita: susurra. Hay una confianza tranquila y discreta en los guantes de seda: frescos al tacto, sutilmente luminosos, infinitamente refinados. Pero refinamiento no significa fragilidad. Lo que la seda necesita es suavidad: en el agua, en el movimiento y en el tiempo.
Manejada adecuadamente, la seda le recompensa con longevidad y elegancia a partes iguales.
Cuando se trata de seda, menos es más. Lávela en frío, con suavidad y nunca con prisas. Una bolsa para prendas delicadas añade una capa extra de cuidado. Después, deje los guantes en posición horizontal para que se sequen y vuelva a darles forma tranquilamente con las manos. El vapor puede ayudar - pero sólo a distancia.
Dé la vuelta a los guantes y lávelos en una bolsa de malla en un ciclo frío y delicado. Colóquelos en posición horizontal para secarlos. Evite escurrirlos o plancharlos directamente. Nunca los seque en secadora.
Para la seda arrugada, opaca o descolorida, le recomendamos un profesional textil con experiencia en fibras naturales delicadas. Restaurarán el acabado del guante sin debilitar su tejido.
Hecho a mano en Sussex, Inglaterra


El toque final
Cada par de guantes se envía con mucho esmero. Se presenta en nuestra caja de regalo de alta calidad, acompañado de una bolsa protectora de regalo y una nota escrita a mano. No hay nada más personal que eso.

The gloves feel perfect to wear, so comfortable. They keep my arms warm when it's cool and cool when it's warm, and add a perfect flair to my look while doing it. The most functional accessory I've bought in a long time. Unfortunately I apparently had a hard time measuring my arm diameter, so the gloves fall down constantly. I intend to see if they can be altered to fit slightly better. But this is not Cornelia James' fault; they have excellent directions on how to measure your dimensions. I just fell between two sizes and guessed wrong on which to order.

My black, silk opera gloves were exactly what I hoped for. The size and length were perfect and they added such an elegant touch to my gown. I received so many compliments on them. I highly recommend Cornelia James.

I am delighted with my beautiful white gloves. The quality is excellent and the monogram completes them perfectly. They match the description. I had to call the company to check something and the responder was extremely polite and courteous and efficient and the gloves were delivered the next day. I recommend using this company for any special occasion requiring gloves.
