Roberto di Milano, OL. He's based in the Dominion of Myrkfaelinn, 
mundanely Ithaca, NY. The last three or four Pennsics, he's made a 
production run of high quality gauntlets. The design is based on a 
period mitten gauntlet of the 14th century, with an enclosed thumb 
and other modifications intended to appeal to SCA fighters. As Roberto's
sometime apprentice, I help him sell them every year. I don't know
if he's planning on selling them again this year.
