It is not difficult to find in our daily life that old illustrations of working masons do not show them wearing gloves, in fact these gloves are mainly ceremonial, especially in Masonic ceremonies, the symbolic meaning of these gloves must be worn to explain. An Italian writer, Vanni, once believed that the meaning of symbols is not that workers use them or to keep out the cold, but that they are used for military purposes. Carry heavy weapons such as spears, great swords, axes, maces. Gloves are required to protect and improve grip. The gloves were originally made of leather, but eventually needed to be protected with a steel chain. Giving a glove represents giving up the means of protection and will give it all to the recipient. Throwing gloves on the other hand represents infidelity and condemnation. Like medieval judges throwing gloves at criminals. In addition, gloves are used more frequently among nobles. Gloves are worn in hunting and archery, not to show off luxury. In court etiquette, if a knight presents white gloves with perfume like a lady, the lady accepts it. This establishes their dependency. Gloves protect your sacred hands, and French kings often receive a pair of white gloves during their coronation, which means that the king's sacred hands, like the hands of bishops, should not be soiled by accepting unclean things. And after the end, the white gloves worn by the king are often burned to prevent them from being desecrated by others.

Therefore, in the history of Western countries, white gloves are not only material, but also spiritual. For this reason, hands cannot be covered when touching holy books. Also in some ceremonies when forming a "chain of brothers", gloves cannot be worn. This is to allow the spirit to flow freely.
