Oversized Carved Wooden Folk Art Scissors in Old Silver Paint activities book and with a reverse sideNot too much larger than an actual pair of scissors, but with nicely elongated proportions that make them feel more so. A nice whimsy of sorts, perhaps at one time hung in a tailor's shop, or at a hairdresser's?! 11 3 4" x 2 3 8" x 1 4 and in very good condition, light in weight, with nice mellowing to the silver paint and some darkening along the edges, as if they had been used!
