    HISTORY

    Gloves were invented as far back as ancient Egypt,


    they had no thumb or finger holes but looked more
    like a pocket, they were used to protect the hands of
    noble women and were also used as a status symbol
    by the Pharaohs.

    The pocket like glove then evolved into what we


    would consider a mitten(with a thumb hole.)
    Gloves with fingers mage from silk were later used as
    a status symbol of the rich and powerful.

    They were used to protect hands and keep them soft


    and were also used when eating to stop the hands
    from getting dirty.
    LEATHER
    Gloves made from leather have been around for centuries and they
    range from heavy gloves for those that needed protection whilst
    working such as farm hands laborers and those who trained hawks to

    MATERIALS

    FABRIC
    From roughly 1500 on as more and more fabric types were available
    to the rich and powerful the focus from leather based gloves shifted
    to softer much more stylish fabric based gloves such as silk, satin,
    velvet, cotton, and linen.
