This print showcases a pair of men's armoured gloves dating back to the late 16th century. Crafted from heavy buff leather, these gloves were not only functional but also served as a fashion statement during that era. The intricate decoration and ornate design make them truly remarkable. The gloves feature an interlocking pattern with scalloped edges, adding an elegant touch to their overall appearance. The pinked detailing further enhances their decorative appeal, while the wide gauntlets provide ample protection for the wearer's hands and wrists. These gloves were undoubtedly a symbol of status and style in the male costume of the time. They exemplify the attention to detail and craftsmanship prevalent in 17th-century English fashion. Now housed at the Fashion Museum Bath, this piece offers us a glimpse into historical trends and accessories worn by gentlemen centuries ago. It serves as a reminder of how fashion has evolved over time while still drawing inspiration from past styles. With its rich history and exquisite design, this pair of men's armoured gloves is not just an accessory but also a testament to the artistry that went into creating fashionable attire for men during this period.
