The Worshipful Company of Glovers is one of the ancient Livery Companies of the City of London.[1] Glovers separated from the Cordwainers to form their own organisation in 1349 and received a Royal Charter of incorporation in 1639. The company is, as are most other Livery Companies, a charitable organisation, but it still retains close links to its original trade.

The Company ranks 62nd in the order of precedence of Livery Companies.[2] They are a member of the 'Leathery Group' of Livery Companies, along with the Leathersellers, Coachmakers & Coach Harness Makers, Cordwainers, Curriers, Girdlers, Loriners, Saddlers, and Pattenmakers.[3]

The company's motto is True Hearts and Warm Hands.[4]
