A beautiful set of sewing scissors from the highly regarded WaSa manufactory in Solingen, Germany. Two pairs of finest quality classic stork scissors, one measuring 3.5", the other a much rarer 6.5", are accompanied by a gold plated thimble. Both are made from forged carbon steel plated in nickel, with gold-plated handles. Their fine points and highly sharpened blades make these a joy to use for smaller sewing projects and embroidery.
Founded in 1907 by August Waldmin and Fritz Saam, Waldmin & Saam (AKA WaSa) are known particularly for the delicacy of their embroidery snips — many of WASA’s designs date back over a century or more. Each pair of WaSa scissors requires dozens of individual steps, with painstaking attention to the handcrafted precision worthy of the Solingen, “City of Blades”, standard. Handcrafted from the best steels, hot dropped forged, hardened, tempered, hand ground, plated, polished, and honed, these scissors are made by highly skilled craftsman — a trade learned from father to son for over one hundred years.
Nickel-plated carbon steel scissors require special attention to prevent tarnishing and damage to the blades. Make sure to wipe clean after use, dry thoroughly. Store dry and occasionally oil to protect from humidity.
