This is a striking industrial artifact: a vintage ceramic glove mold used in the mass production of rubber or latex gloves. The form features a slender, elegant hand with elongated fingers, characteristic of mid-20th-century industrial design. The base is finished in a contrasting brown glaze and is embossed with the manufacturer's mark "MDB," associated with Marigold Leek (formerly of the London Rubber Company). It also features the stamped production number 450492. These molds have become highly sought-after as sculptural decor, serving as unique display pieces for jewelry or as stand-alone curiosities in eclectic and industrial-themed interiors.
Condition: The mold is in good vintage condition with no visible cracks or structural damage. There is some light surface discolouration and minor "ghosting" marks consistent with its age and former industrial use, which adds to its authentic character. Dimensions: 40.5cm (h)
