Do you have to have silk, or will cotton do?  If so, call (800) 221-1264.  The company is Vanguard Ind. East, Inc. out of Norfolk, Va.  They specialize in military apparel.  The offer a white stretch (synthetic) glove as well as cotton.  Cotton allows you to grip things whereas the synthetic fabrics are quite slippery.  Also, from what I'm told, cotton is a much better material to rub on silver and is less likely to scratch.
