Step into the serenity of the forest with Regina Silva—a pair of fingerless mittens inspired by nature’s quiet majesty. Featuring a simple construction, these mittens are adorned with a delicate embroidered leaf motif, evoking the beauty of leaves underfoot on a woodland walk. Perfect for adding warmth while keeping your hands free, the Regina Silva mittens are as practical as they are charming. Pair them with the matching Regina Silva hat for a complete look that celebrates the forest’s grace.
