Product description

Product code: 58150508

One of the most recognisable designs in needlework, traditional stork embroidery scissors trace their origins to the 19th century. Inspired by the stork-shaped maternity tools once carried by midwives, it's said that the scissors were so popular among nurses that they often found their way home to the sewing tin.

Featuring a real gold gilt finish and finely pointed blades, these elegant scissors are ideal for precise thread trimming, detailed embroidery and delicate needlework. Combining practical performance with a rich heritage, they make a timeless addition to any sewing basket.

Fine point for delicate needlework. Traditional Individually inspected and tested by hand for perfect cutting from pinch to point. 2.5cm blade length.

Worth knowing: By law, we are not permitted to sell a knife or blade to any person under the age of 18. Criminal Justice Act 1988 (as amended). Offensive Weapons Act 2019.

To keep your scissors performing at their best, wipe the blades clean after use and store them in a dry place. Occasionally apply a small drop of general-purpose oil to the pivot screw to maintain smooth operation, then wipe away any excess.
