cold hands
Winter's icy grip
Cold hands are hands that feel cool or chilly to the touch, often from poor circulation, cold weather, or nervousness.
The phrase appears in the folk saying cold hands, warm heart, suggesting that people with cold extremities have affectionate natures.
Someone with cold hands may struggle to warm them: She blew on her cold hands.
