Antique Steel Scissors in Carved Brass Mounts
A finely crafted pair of antique steel scissors housed within an elaborately carved brass mount and sheath, measuring approximately 7 inches in full length. The scissors feature slender steel blades with a tapered point, paired with highly decorative gilt brass handles displaying intricate openwork and scroll motifs. The accompanying brass sheath is richly ornamented with raised floral and foliate designs, reflecting a high level of craftsmanship.
This type of piece was often produced as both a functional cutting tool and a decorative personal accessory, commonly associated with sewing, embroidery, or domestic use. The ornate presentation suggests it may have been part of a sewing set or chatelaine, where practicality was combined with aesthetic refinement.
A visually striking and well-preserved antique decorative sewing or personal accessory piece, ideal for collectors of antique tools, sewing implements, or finely worked brass objects.
