glass file

Manicure finishing tool

A glass file is a nail file made from tempered glass, used to shape and smooth fingernails.

Unlike emery boards, glass files have a finely abrasive surface that doesn't wear down and can be washed clean.

They're gentler on nails and less likely to cause splitting or peeling.
