Women’s Tanned Moosehide Gauntlet Mittens with Embroidery

These handcrafted women’s gauntlet mittens are made from tanned moosehide and feature a floral embroidered motif on the front of each mitten. Designed with an extended gauntlet-style cuff, they provide added warmth and protection for cold northern conditions.

Finished with beaver fur trim, decorative fringe, and a knit braided string with tassels, these mittens balance function with beauty. Moosehide has long been valued in Cree culture for its durability, warmth, and suitability for winter wear. The front-facing floral embroidery adds a soft, expressive element while maintaining a practical, timeless design.
