Red at opera length — 40–42 cm from the base of the thumb, high on the upper arm, in Italian nappa with a natural silk lining, made in our Târgu Mureș workshop.
Nappa is imported from Italy and is the smoothest of our leathers: thin, close-fitting and soft from the first wear. At this length that matters more than it does on a short glove — the leather keeps its line along the forearm instead of bunching, and it moves with the hand rather than against it.
Red is the most direct colour we make at opera length. Against an evening gown or a cocktail dress it leads the look rather than accompanying it, which is either what you want from a glove or it isn't.
Inside, a natural silk lining rests softly against the skin — smooth, light and breathable through a long evening. Available in a choice of 35 colours on request.
Free shipping across the European Union, delivered in 3–7 days with tracking included. Outside the EU: €30, free over €200 — €50 to Australia, New Zealand, India and Vietnam. Customs duties may apply outside the EU.
The length is measured from the base of the thumb, not the wrist, so run a tape from there up the inside of your arm to see where 40–42 cm falls on you. If a standard size is not right, tell us where you want the glove to end and we will make the pair to fit — most bespoke orders are finished within five days. See how it works.
