Realistic Alexander Fingertip Prosthetic
Please purchase skin tones first and write your two skin tone choices in the "notes to seller" specifying top side # and palm side #.
I recommend 2A for the palm side, which shows through under the nail and gives it a natural light & pinkish appearance.

Welcome!
Thank you for your interest in my work. I am an artist that is offering ready-to-wear prosthetics for amputees without insurance. This is by far the most fulfilling art that I have ever made. I do all of this work myself so please read all of my descriptions very carefully and kindly follow my well-defined policies so I can continue to offer this unique service to those in need. I appreciate your support for the ARTS and a SMALL business!
Kind Regards,
Emily Boyd Longcope
The Alexander collection is modeled from a man in his late 30's. The short length prosthetic tip is designed for those missing about 3/4 inch of their finger. This model comes in only ONE SIZE. Your finger must measure the same base circumference (just above your PIP joint- see reference drawing) as the prosthetic in order to fit properly.
KEY NOTES
-Designed for keyboard use and light wear.
-Realistic style includes a natural pinkish nail bed with hand-painted lunula (half-moon), rosy accents on fingertip and knuckles, two-tone skin
-There is no fingerprint detail.
-Soft rubber is used for comfort with a very thin and stretchy edge that can tear easily if not careful.
-This is a short length prosthetic and it ends just above the PIP joint (see reference drawing).
-It is filled solid about 3/4 inch and the rest is hollow (see reference drawing). If you are missing just the nail area, this would be your best choice.
-Skin tones will not match your skin perfectly.
-Make-up and nail polish can be used to achieve a greater likeness.
MATERIAL
Water-Resistant Platinum Silicone Rubber
