Coffin nails (also called ballerina) are the tapered-square silhouette that defined the late 2010s and refuses to leave. The shape squares off at the tip after a gentle taper from the cuticle — modern, elongating, and somewhere between stiletto's drama and square's structure.
This collection runs across short, medium, and long coffin. Every set is hand-painted on a premium soft-gel tip in our studio. Layered gel polish, UV-cured 4-6 times, gloss top-coat. No printed designs, no factory shortcuts.
Coffin sets ship with 10 hand-painted nails in your chosen size, a prep kit, and our 30-day return on unworn sets. Wear 2-4 weeks per application, reuse 5-10 times.
Coffin is one shape in our broader handmade press-on nails range.
