My confusion is more "why gloves in particular?" Couldn't this have been used for cloth making in general?
I don't know what this item is called, so I can't look up its size. Is it too big to be used for cloth making at all?
No one knows what they were called, so they're just Roman Dodecahedron: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_dodecahedron
Cheers, thanks for the link!
