Pair of embroidery scissors tortoiseshell style - S for Sajou model

These embroidery scissors have tortoiseshell effect handles and reproduce the Sajou "S". The finger rings are beautifully decorated with a festoon detail. The finished article is a very light pair of scissors that are a delight to use.

Characteristics:

Size: 11.8cm – Sajou stamp on the upper blade
Decorative pompom: with a hollowed-out "S" medallion in the same material as the scissors
Presentation: small box, motif may vary, with explanatory label inside the lid

These scissors, including the pompom, are entirely MADE IN FRANCE.

It should be pointed out that it takes a dozen qualified people to make each pair.

An important detail enables us to judge the quality of a pair of scissors: the pairing marks – the number which you can see on the interior of each of the blades. You will notice the number "13" on the photos presented here. This number is different on each pair of scissors and indicates that both parts have been paired together from the first assemblage to make a perfect match. After the first fitting, the scissors are taken apart and each blade undergoes the different processing operations before being reassembled and finished.

In the 19th century, such scissors would need the craftsmanship of a cutler for the steel blades and an ornamental turner for the mother-of-pearl work. Nowadays, the distribution of the work is quite similar: the blades are still made by a master cutler, and the handles are created in our own workshops.
