"Wedding Gloves" is a pair of white leather gloves with intricate lace trim dating back to 1842. Made by Préville, the gloves are a beautiful example of 19th-century craftsmanship and fashion. The delicate lace and the fine leather suggest the gloves were likely intended for a special occasion, such as a wedding, hence the title. The gloves are currently on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
