Handmade presentation box has a grey cover, stamped in silver with name of artist & title of work. The box has a black satin ribbon tie and the sides are made from black board. Inside the front lid is printed the names of the collaborating artists. Inside the box is a pair of gauntlet style gloves made from pigskin and are a dull cream colour, assembled with machine stitching and printed in black with a depiction of an engraved map of Paris. The construction of the gloves allows the pattern of the map to be read without the finger construction marring its alignment. The gloves are positioned in the box by a cream satin ribbon band. Each glove is signed, numbered and dated.
