What it is

The everyday glove with the cuff extended up the forearm, which is the difference between pruning a rose and regretting it. Artificial suede palms hold their grip and stay flexible when they get wet. The cuffs and backs are heavyweight cotton ticking.

Stretch mesh between the fingers keeps the hand cool and lets it close properly around a stem. Soft lined inside, one size. Machine washable at 30 degrees.

The long cuff is the whole point: it covers the forearm where a short glove stops and a bramble does not. Everything above the wrist is cloth rather than suede, so it is cover rather than armour.

For pruning, cutting back, and clearing the corner of the garden that has got away from you over a season. It suits someone who already owns gloves and keeps catching a wrist on something anyway. Bramble, rose, blackthorn — the jobs where the forearm is the part that suffers.

A sensible present for late winter, when the roses come down. Part of the Sophie Conran range, made by Burgon & Ball.

A small parcel tied with twine and a blank card on an oak table.

Our promise

Every piece here is chosen on its own merits by a person who has handled the alternatives and set most of them aside. Some of what we sell we make ourselves; the rest is made by other people and chosen by us, and we say which is which.

If it arrives damaged, faulty or not as described, we replace it or refund it, and we pay the return postage. Our Promise, written down.

Not sure this is the one? The Bloom is composed by hand around pieces like it, and the contents stay a secret until it is opened. If you would rather browse than decide, Gifts for him is where this one sits.
