Description

Prince's stage-worn jewel-encrusted lace glove from the legendary 1984 Purple Rain Tour

Prince's stage-worn white lace right-handed glove from his concert at the Richfield Coliseum in Ohio on December 5, 1984, during his iconic Purple Rain Tour. The delicate glove features an ornate sewn-on golden bracelet encrusted with faux diamonds. In fine condition, with expected light wear from use. Accompanied by a notarized letter of provenance from the owner, in part: "On 12/5/1984, I attended the Purple Rain concert at the Richfield Coliseum in Ohio. During the concert, Prince was wearing a white lace glove. At one point during the show, he went on the top of a higher stage on the right-hand side playing his guitar and singing. He was alone on the top of that stage. I was sitting high up on the left-hand side of the coliseum, and I saw him drop the glove he was wearing on the top of that stage. When the concert ended, I approached one of the stage guys and said that I saw Prince drop his glove on top of the higher right-hand stage. I asked him if I could have the glove that Prince dropped. He said yes, went to the top, came down with the glove and handed it to me. I have had it in my possession ever since." A fabulous piece of Prince's stage-worn wardrobe, epitomizing the glamorous style of the Purple Rain era.
