Stork Scissors

Small Scissors Crane / Stork / Bird

Add an antique but modern touch to your craft supplies with these lovely Stork Scissors. The design is a modern version of the vintage bird scissors often found in a lady's sewing box at the turn of the 20th century. There's a legend saying that these scissors were used by midwives to cut the umbilical cord after delivery and this is where the stork design came from. But it's more likely that it was rather used by future moms for needlecraft projects for their baby-to-come.

These scissors measure 9 cm (3.5 inch). The length of the blades are about 2.5 cm (1 inch).

These vintage-style crane scissors are the perfect gift for someone special or a treat for yourself. They will become your favourite companion for every crochet, embroidery, sewing or knitting project. They are also perfect for paper crafting or to cut herbs for your kitchen.
