Four Pairs of Mid-Century Women's Dress Gloves with Two Retailer Boxes including Crone's of Wheeling - This lot features four pairs of women's dress gloves dating from approximately the 1950s to the 1960s, accompanied by two period-appropriate retail storage boxes. The gloves are constructed from matte-finish fabrics, likely including cotton, nylon, or synthetic blends typical of the era. The collection includes one pair of white opera-length evening gloves featuring traditional three-point decorative stitching on the back of the hand. Three pairs of wrist-length gloves are included in ivory, black, and navy blue. The ivory pair is currently housed in a clear plastic protective bag. All gloves are a standard pull-on style without buttons or zippers. The set is accompanied by two cardboard boxes. One large teal box features a repeating gold and black decorative scroll and spiral pattern. The second, a long and narrow box, displays a white-and-gold geometric maze pattern and bears a black rectangular label with gold lettering for Crone's of Wheeling, a department store formerly located in Wheeling, West Virginia.
