French 18th Century Glove

About the Item

A very intriguing 18th century glove in wood and leather with iron protrusions. One's hand is inserted into the glove with positions for all fingers - like a baseball glove. The original purpose of this very interesting piece is a mystery. Wonderful as contemporary art.
