Thanks for putting subtitles! Beautiful video!

[@michellerenee92580]

I LOVE NAIL GUARDS so much so I bought some and wear them whenever I'm at home, they are a whole vibe

[@sadtelna]

I wish that nail guards are still exists in this modern era so I can prevent my nails from breaking..

[@gloriataro3509]

They are nice nail guards from Qing Dynasty! I love the history and Hanfu costumes back in the Tang, Song, and Ming Dynasty, which are considered as the most prosperous time, both literarily and geographically. And all the beautiful words of poems come from Tang and Song Dynasty. There are various Hanfu styles from different dynasties like Tang, Song and Ming Dynasty.❤️

[@demariejones3438]

Very beautiful…. The hands always look so pretty like this

[@realmofthesenses]

It would be wonderful if the museum could put open English transcript. If so, we can watch the translated text. I own 2 different nailguards, and I like to know more.

thanks for posting! i was pretty fascinated with these nail guards when I was watching Chinese Drama, at least now i understand that it is connected to status.

Yes, but also more jewels, also if a woman had birthed a son she would get gold things including fingernail guards, but only silver for a daughter.

Baba Gama The longer the nail guards most likely means that they have been wealthy and aristocratic for a long time. I think people with longer nail guards got more respect from people with shorter nail guards.

The longer the nail guards, the higher the status I’m assuming. I think lesser concubines had shorter nail guards.

Is it true that they wore it to hide their hideous finger shape after chopped it off?

[@hunghui5716]

@@tingjia_liang It probably means that in ancient women, if they had finger cots on their nails, it represented a lofty status and status. Wearing finger cots is because the nails are very long, and we know that people with long nails cannot do rough work and labor. It also means that they do not need labor and have a high status. The finger cots also have many design styles and gorgeous jewels inlaid in them. Most of the pictures are of Empress Dowager Cixi. Every day she asks the maid to do her nail SPA, which is basically a modern manicure (I am not good in English, I use Google translation) and I translate it in general.

以前的女人指甲越長身份地位就越高，當年慈禧太后被追殺，因為指甲太長不方便逃命，下很大的決心才把她養了多年的指甲剪掉，聽説為了這事她還哭了一場大的。所以啊！地位高的人不都是有一推人伺候嘛，很正常！難道要讓哪些皇後，貴妃留著這麼長的指甲做家務嗎？不可能吧！

Hi, the whole English subtitles are following, you may use Google Translate to read in Spanish. Thanks a lot. Qing Dynasty Royal Nail Art: Aristocratic Aesthetic of Fingernail Guards. Ancient Chinese used to keep nails long and it was even more popular in the Qing Dynasty. To protect long fingernails, Qing dynasty people took the ancient zither plectrum as the prototype, extended the shape into an arch tube and add decoration, finally transformed to be Qing Dynasty jewelry. In addition to function and decoration, fingernail Guards were aristocratic. [Golden Fingernail Guards: Discovered at Ancient Tombs of Han Dynasty (202 BC~220 AD) in Jilin province, China] [Ancient zither plectrum transformed to be Qing Dynasty jewelry] [Hint Message: Wearers were no need to work] [Fingernail Guards protected not only fingernails but aristocracy; they showed off not only craftsmanship but wearer’s identity.] [Royal nail art team: Western country tribute nail art kits / Camellia essence distillation tool/ Royal handmade skin care products and cosmetics] Nail Art Empress Dowager CIXI. According to the memories of the female officer De Ling and the court amid He Ronger, CIXI particularly concerned about maintaining anti-aging. Obsession with beauty of face, skin and even her fingernails. Female officers and court maids washed and maintained CIXI’s fingernails every morning and evening. However, Empress Dowager CIXI was other than ordinary nobles. Wearing Fingernail Guards was not only for protecting nails, decoration and showing off class, It also has an emotional connection with highest political power.
