ProfessionalProduct description
Antique nail buffer in 800 silver, made in the late 1800s. Diameter 12 cm, Diameter 3.5 cm, Height 15 cm. In the past, particularly during the Victorian and Edwardian eras, manicure sets were a symbol of refinement and elegance. These sets often included a variety of tools, and the buffer was an essential component for achieving a polished nail surface. Antique manicure buffers were often made from materials such as sterling silver, bone, and leather. They often formed part of elaborate manicure sets, sometimes housed in ornate cases. The design of antique buffers varied, but they were generally designed to smooth and polish the nail surface. Some buffers consisted of a handle with a soft surface made of leather or chamois. Others could have abrasive surfaces, similar to modern buffers, but made from natural materials. Often, these buffers were part of larger "etui" or "nécessaire" sets, which contained a variety of small personal care tools.
