Burgon & Ball - RHS Woodland Wonders Gauntlet Gloves – Designer Extended-Cuff Protection
The RHS Woodland Wonders Gauntlet Gloves by Burgon & Ball offer a perfect synthesis of high-performance protection and classical botanical art. Featuring a deep-cuff gauntlet design, these gloves provide essential 35.5cm coverage to shield the wrists and forearms from scratches and irritants when navigating dense woodland gardens or thorny shrubs. The palms are engineered from a resilient polyurethane blend with integrated cushioning to absorb impact and improve grip during intensive pruning and clearing. Designed with a flexible stretch fabric and a gathered wrist to keep soil and debris out, these gloves are both soft to the touch and remarkably hardwearing. Adorned with 18th-century illustrations of berries, insects, and forest life from the RHS Lindley Collections, these gauntlets are a sophisticated choice for gardeners who prioritize safety, comfort, and timeless style.
Best For: Pruning thorny roses and brambles, clearing dense undergrowth, protective forearm coverage in woodland gardens, and as a premium, designer gift for dedicated horticulturalists.
Key Features
- Extended Forearm Shield: The 35.5cm gauntlet length provides a deep protective barrier for the forearms, making them ideal for reaching deep into overgrown garden beds or handling prickly vegetation.
- Cushioned High-Traction Palms: Features a reinforced, cushioned palm section designed to reduce hand fatigue and provide superior protection against abrasions during heavy-duty tasks.
- RHS Lindley Collections Artwork: Showcases an elegant "Woodland Wonders" motif against a deep forest green background, featuring historic botanical engravings specially selected from the Royal Horticultural Society’s archives.
- Debris-Shield Gathered Wrist: Engineered with a gathered elasticated wrist that creates a secure seal, ensuring that mulch, dirt, and garden debris cannot fall into the fingers of the glove.
- Easy-Care Machine Washable: Built for practical longevity, these tough gauntlets are machine washable at 30°C, allowing you to maintain their appearance and hygiene after intensive use in the garden.

Oversized Item Delivery Options
Oversized, heavy, and structural goods ship via specialist freight. Freight is calculated at checkout from estimated packaged volumetric or physical weight. Carrier depot audits may adjust the rate — if the increase exceeds 10%, we will contact you before processing.
Available options include:
✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup — default method
✔ Direct delivery — requires an operational forklift on site unless Tailgate Delivery has been specifically requested and quoted (contact us — this cannot be selected at checkout)
✔ Tailgate hydraulic lift delivery — must be specifically requested; contact us for a quote (not available as a checkout option; extra fees apply; required if you do not have a forklift)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)
Important Notes:
- Shipping costs vary by location and method
- Any carton or consignment over 25–30kg (or over 200cm) must be palletised
- Without a specifically requested and paid Tailgate Delivery quote, palletised freight requires a forklift on site — otherwise the carrier will redirect to the nearest depot
- Bulky and oversized items cannot be delivered to a PO Box — provide a physical street address
- Failed deliveries, locked gates, unattended sites, or incorrect business/forklift declarations may incur carrier redelivery, demurrage, and restocking fees as set out in our Terms & Conditions
Business Delivery:
- Selecting a business/commercial delivery rate warrants that the address has an operational forklift and certified operator during business hours
- If the carrier cannot unload, the consignment may be redirected to a depot and secondary fees may apply
- Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment
See our Terms & Conditions (Article 8) for full freight and delivery rules.
Important Note on Availability & Shipping
Our warehouse is a logistics hub, not a retail showroom. Listing a product online does not mean it is stored at our Thomastown warehouse — many lines ship from supplier hubs (split fulfilment may apply).
How lead times work:
- Product page ETA: The Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) / lead-time badge shown on the product page at checkout is the agreed delivery timeframe for that order under Australian Consumer Law.
- Metro baselines: Advertised ETAs apply to standard metropolitan zones. Regional and remote addresses may take longer and may attract surcharges.
- Peak seasons: Orders in March–May, August–October, EOFY (June), Black Friday/Cyber Monday (November), and Christmas/New Year (December–January) may automatically add a 2–4 week buffer beyond the product page ETA.
- Supplier-dependent / backordered items: If stock is delayed, we will notify you with a revised ETA. You then have 7 days to accept the new timeframe or cancel for a full refund.
- Adloheat: Custom-made products from Adloheat (Pakenham, VIC) may take 4–12 weeks depending on the order.
Full fulfilment, cancellation, and freight rules are in our Terms & Conditions.
