Antique Iron Scissors (Late 19th – Early 20th Century (Rusted)

$100.00

A rugged pair of hand-forged iron scissors, crafted in the age when tools were meant to outlive their owners. Heavy, sharp (in spirit if not in edge), and marked with the patina of a century’s use, they once served tailors, seamstresses, or pragmatic households determined to cut cloth, rope, or perhaps even the occasional secret.

Usage (Then & Now)

  • Then: Cutting fabric, thread, or anything that needed discipline.

  • Now: A striking conversation piece, gothic décor accent, or paperweight that silently judges your life choices.

Obscure Lore
Legends whisper that opening and closing them three times over a book summons a spectral grandmother who insists you’re sewing the hem wrong. She won’t leave until you admit she’s right.

Modern Appeal
Ideal for collectors, interior stylists, or anyone who wants their desk accessories to look like they’ve seen things no stapler ever should.
