Here’s a description from the Manchester Art Gallery of one of their objects, a glove:

Single glove in mid-brown leather, embroidered with gold metal thread and sequins.
elongated fingers with squared ends, edged in metal braid with trefoil designs at the knuckles, the braid and the stitching is extended c.1.5 beyond the end of the finger to the knuckle, the fourchettes on the inside of the 2 fingers have lost their stitching, separate thumb section, gauntlets embroidered in gold metal thread in chain stitch, feather stitch and raised pearl stitch, trailing floral motifs with a scattering of gold metal sequins, edged in a gold metal fringe which has come unstitched, gauntlet interlined with linen canvas with the yellow and beige stitching showing, original black silk lining to mask the stitching has largely disappeared although traces remain at the edges
