This is an attractive and rare pair of antique glove stretchers made of wood, probably beech, dating from around the 1890s to Edwardian times. They are made in three sections which was to facilitate their use in drying gloves after washing. Leather gloves were difficult to wash and tend to shrink and crinkle, so these stretchers were inserted to keep their shape as they dried.

They both have turned handles and are made in three sections which slide in separately into the gloves.

They are in excellent condition, except that, as can be seen in the last photo, one section on the left hand does not slide out and I am reluctant to force it. They would make a welcome addition to a collection of treen or articles in domestic use during this period.
