Catalan Nickel Plated Sewing Scissors, 5.5”

Catalan Nickel Plated Sewing Scissors, 5.5”
£19.00
Ex Tax: £15.83

Steel and nickel plated hot forged, hand ground, paired, and finished 5.5 inch Catalan sewing scissors, with one pointed and one rounded tip for detailed work hopefully with minimal potential for snagging. From the workshops of Cuchillería Pallarès the one surviving knife and tool maker in a town once dotted with small manufacturers. Now with a workforce of 15 the management still split their time between administrative necessity and manual craft production.


By purchasing this item you are confirming that you are over the age of 18, and that we may contact you prior to dispatch in order to verify this. Orders including any bladed items will incur an additional courier age verification charge and legally require delivery to persons aged 18 and over.

Care Advice
