Shpitser 5-Piece Nail Kit, black case

A complete manicure and pedicure set in one case — everything for grooming at home without buying instruments one at a time.

Made in Solingen, Germany. The name is protected by law: only instruments actually manufactured there may carry it. Each piece is sharpened by hand — on thick nails that is the difference you feel, because a machine-ground edge crushes before it cuts.

Stainless steel throughout, so the instrument can be rinsed, dried and — if you share it — disinfected without harming the finish.

It comes in a genuine leather case — handmade, and the reason the instrument survives being carried in a bag rather than sitting in a drawer.

As a gift it solves the usual problem — nothing to size, nothing to match, and it will still be in the bathroom cabinet in ten years. The leather case makes it presentable for a birthday or a holiday without extra wrapping.

Photography is illustrative. Finish, leather grain and set contents may vary from the images shown.

Dry the instrument after contact with water and return it to its case. Stainless steel resists corrosion but is not immune to it, and standing moisture dulls an edge faster than actual use.

The instrument can be sterilised. A forged edge holds its cut for years of regular use; when it finally softens, any competent sharpening workshop can reset it.

Orders placed before 2 pm EST ship the same business day. Shipping within the United States is $5.99, and free on orders over $100.

Thirty days to return an unused instrument in its original packaging.
