The elemental gauntlets are a guaranteed artifact in ADOM. They are found in the underground mausoleum below the Dwarven Graveyard. The elemental gauntlets have stats of (-1, +0) [+0, +3], and grant resistance to fire, cold and shock attacks.They also halve the corruption caused by using the chaos orbs. In their unidentified form, they are 10s "gauntlets" - making them indistinguishable from regular gauntlets (or gauntlets of peace or Shezestriakis, for that matter).

| Desirability
| - They are an extremely useful item, which can be considered as three indestructible dragon-hide gauntlets combined into one with slightly better protection value of +3. They are the only guaranteed pair of artifact gauntlets in the game; being artifacts, they can't easily be destroyed, and as long as a PC's gauntlets are intact, rings underneath them can't be destroyed, making the elemental gauntlets a foolproof way to keep equipped rings safe. The three resistances the gauntlets offer are moderately useful as well, and the combination of the elemental gauntlets and a ring of fire resistance underneath provides much of the protection a player needs to survive the Tower of Eternal Flames.
Their most important property, however, is not revealed by a greater identify: if they are equipped, the corruption cost from 'U'sing a chaos orb is halved. Thus, for example, the penalty for using the Chaos Orb of Elemental Water is reduced from 300 points of corruption to 150. If there is any chance the player might need to use one of the chaos orbs, the elemental gauntlets are vital. Players planning on using the orb for healing during tough battles must remember to equip the elemental gauntlets in advance.
Mist Elves are damaged whilst wearing the elemental gauntlets through the 'wearing impure metal' racial disadvantage they have with iron-based items.
