Delighted

I received the nail scissors a few days ago and am really delighted with them! Also, I am so impressed with the service from your Company .

Absolutely Beautiful

The scissors arrived today and they are all absolutely beautiful. Such a great sound when the blades brush by each other. The EXO design and gold color are stunning and the gift is perfect.

I would definitely recommend them to any lefty. 5*

The shears were beautifully boxed with all necessary instructions on how to use. On first look to shears were expertly finished with a polished and glossy tone on the striking red handle - this colour is amazing! The handle fits perfectly for my left hand like it was meant to be, and the blades glide like butter. The shears are very easy to control with the grip and brilliant for cutting light weight fabrics which has been some what difficult in the past. I can't wait to cut out more garments for my future makes! I would definitely recommend them to any lefty. 5*

The quality of your products shines through even better in person

Extremely happy with the EXO gift set, and I have to say the quality of your products shines through even better in person than viewed online. Everyone involved with your company must be rightly proud to produce such items.
