The design faded and came back between the layers that got stipped away. It’s now a size 5.5/6. It looks like it was created in a solid piece. I’m going to look up waxing methods to preserve it.

    I did! @komokwa

    We had a festival out on the central coast and my fingernail suffered a fracture during the festivities (code for I drank too much wine, tripped in a hole and fell). :eek:

    So to keep it even, all of them got the chop chop. They will be back in about 3 weeks. I grow dragon-lady nails quickly.

    It still looks nice, but as you can see it was never worn (no wear on inside), and there is no age-related patina.
    I can recommend Renaissance wax. It is great for preservation, won't leave an unnatural shine and it can be removed.
