I purchased these gloves, but ended up wearing a different pair for the ceremony, so these are unworn, only tried on. They are the type that you hook on your middle finger. The delicate embroidery is beautiful and lovely. There are no scratches on the front, but there is a small snag on the back of one hand. It's not noticeable when worn, but please check the photos just in case. The middle finger hook rubber has been slightly discolored since I bought them, but it's not noticeable when worn.
