gifts for your grandma: a good pair of gloves, for once
she has been given enough scented candles. what she'll use every day is a pair of gloves that feels better than the ones she has.
the short answer
give her something she'll use every day rather than display. a soft pair of leather gloves goes out with her every cold morning, and she'll feel the difference from her old pair at once. the 006 brown python-print gloves from paumier are brown suede with a tan leather edge, £84, size 7.
why gloves for your grandma?
by now she has a cupboard of presents she was too polite to refuse. gloves are different: she'll use them on every walk, every trip to the shops and every bus stop until spring, and a good pair is something many people never think to buy for themselves.
which pair should you choose?
there's no plain pair in our range, so choose by how much detail she'd enjoy.
if she likes things quiet: the 006 brown python-print gloves. the print is brown on brown suede, so from a step away they read as a warm, soft brown that suits a camel or brown coat.
if she wears black or navy: the 007 striped gloves, cream nappa with three glossy black stripes, smart without being loud.
if she has always loved a bit of glamour: the 001 fringe gloves, black nappa with a deep black fringe, the kind of thing she might have worn to a dance.
what about size?
every style is size 7, a small-to-medium hand. if you can borrow a glove she already wears, measure it against our size guide. nappa and suede soften to the hand over the first few weeks.
how do you give it?
tick ‘this is a gift’ at checkout and write a note, which we handwrite on a card in the box. there's no price in the parcel, and the receipt comes to you. enter her address to send it straight to her: delivery is free to the uk and the eu, and £15 to the rest of the world, tracked.
