• About these striped gloves

  Whether repotting a houseplant or pruning foliage outdoors, it’s always a good idea to wear gardening gloves. They’ll help protect your hands from things like toxic sap and thorns, as well as act as a warm layer on cold days outside. This pair from Burgon & Ball has a cosy lining for comfort, as well as stretch mesh between the fingers for extra dexterity. 

  Founded in Sheffield in 1730, Burgon & Ball is the oldest maker of gardening tools and accessories in the UK. These gloves are part of the company’s collaboration with designer Sophie Conran, who’s added her classic country house style with a charming ticking stripe. Complete the set with the matching apron, tool bag and kneeler.
