Cohana Shozaburo Thread Clips

Handmade in Japan. Exquisite tool.
World-famous Shozaburo scissors are remade with devotion, one pair at a time by artisans who do not compromise on quality.
The handles of these smooth-cutting Shozaburo thread scissors are finished in a modern style and wrapped in Iga braids, a material made primarily for use in armour -making since before the Nara period. 

The beautifully dyed silk threads are gentle on the hands, bringing about a unique texture and experience. 
The ultimate scissors, these stunning snips are made for Cohana by the renowned Shozaburo scissor makers in Japan.  The finely honed steel blades are razor sharp and are ideal for precision thread cutting. The handles are wrapped with silk Iga braids (a technique developed for the manufacture of Japanese armour and garment fastening) and finished with an elegant tassel and summary trim.
A soft leather blade cover is the final finishing touch.

As usual with Japanese goods, the packaging is perfect – a beautiful presentation box and Cohana tag make these little scissors the ultimate gift for textile lovers.

Snips measure 10.5 cm long, 4 1/4 inches.
