English Sterling Silver GRAPE SHEARS or SCISSORS Marked:-Sheffield 1904
About the Item
A superb pair of Grape Scissors or shears, made in a variation of Kings shape. Distinctly raised border, giving extra strength - very sturdy and well made.
Used to cut a bunch of grapes from the vine, but also to grip the cut stem so that the bunch can be lifted down, carefully.. Make sure the top side of the scissors is facing downwards with the grapes, otherwise the grapes will fall to the floor and you will be left holding the cut stem!!!!!!!!!!!
