Hen Fancy Embroidery Scissors — 3.5″ Gold-Plated
These detail scissors combine functional precision with a distinctive design. The 3.5-inch (89 mm) frame is compact and easy to manoeuvre, while the fine-ground, sharp points allow for the accurate snipping of threads and other delicate materials. The entire tool is finished with a decorative gold plating.
Constructed from stainless steel for durability and resistance to corrosion, the main feature is the ornate handles, cast in the shape of a hen. This not only provides a unique aesthetic but also offers a comfortable grip for short, precise cuts.
Primarily designed for needlework, these scissors are excellent for embroidery, cross-stitch, and sewing projects. Their precision also makes them a useful tool for personal grooming, such as trimming cuticles, tidying eyebrows, or managing a moustache.
