Description
These leather gloves were passed on to me by my aunt. I believe they were my grandmother's and were purchased July 30, 1971 in Firenze, Italy (according to the accompanying receipt and bag). They look like they have never been worn. I tried the left one on, the right one still has a paper card in it with a map to the store on one side and a $$ conversion chart on the other. According to the chart and receipt, my grandma paid 69.50 for the gloves and perhaps something else...the chart says that would've been ~$112 at the time.
The gloves are a gorgeous, soft, dark brown leather with delicate detailing on the front (back of hand). I have long, lean hands and the left one just fit me (perhaps a bit tight and short, if I was being picky).
