Knit Silk Gloves, ca. late 17th century

For about one hour a day, this little corner of my apartment gets perfect Dutch Master-esque light. Great for showing off a new set of Redthreaded 17th Century Stays, a new pattern/design which will be offered later this year for custom order.

Linen fashion fabric, coutil and twill interior, reed boning with a few steels, and hand bound eyelets.
