Sajou 4.5" Gilded Stork Embroidery Scissors — Medium

Maison Sajou | Made in France | $39.99

The stork scissor is perhaps the most iconic form in the history of embroidery, and this medium gilded pair from Maison Sajou is the classic example. At 4.5 inches (11.4cm), it is the size most beloved by needleworkers across generations — substantial enough to be a genuine tool, and beautiful enough to be a treasured keepsake.

The gilded blades are shaped into the elegant silhouette of a stork in flight, with every feather marking rendered with remarkable fidelity. So as not to interrupt the artistry of the exterior, the Sajou stamp is placed discreetly at the pivot point on the inside of the blades. A small Sajou ribbon adorns one handle; colour may vary.

The legend of stork scissors is believed to have its origins in Alsace in the mid-19th century, spreading across France as the bird became a symbol of new life and good fortune. Today, Maison Sajou continues this tradition with the same devotion to craftsmanship that has defined French scissor-making for centuries.

Presented in a foldable Sajou cardboard sleeve. Motif may vary. The sleeve is reusable — remove the label from the back with care.
