Seki Sewing Scissors with Lacquered Handles - Sakura

Seki City, in the Japanese Gifu Prefecture, is the city of cutlery, in the Land of the Rising Sun: These shears are made following artisanal methods in a workshop established in 1933 and lacquered with the special Tamenuri technique, dating back to 300 BC, by an artisan who has lacquered Buddhist altars with this same technique since 1970. Tamenuri is a deep color, produced by applying layers of transparent lacquer on top of vermillion lacquer. The layers of lacquer bring out a translucent luster and depth. Beautiful luster and tasteful shine will appear as the years go by, and the smooth texture unique to lacquer will fit comfortably in your hand.
Looking for a way to celebrate the stunning beauty of the cherry blossom season, Cohana has designed a collection that features several handicraft items in stunning shades of pink.
Lightweight and steady cutting shears. The blades are made of Japanese stainless steel blade, which is rust-resistant and durable. The shears are designed slightly small in size and fit gently in a woman's hand. They are light and easy to handle, so you will not get tired even if you use them for a long time.
The handles are finished with natural lacquer, and as the years go by, a beautiful glossy shine will appear, allowing you to enjoy the subtle changes in color that only lacquer can bring. The unique smooth texture of the handle makes it fit comfortably in the hand.
The blades are 8 cm long, while the total length of the scissors is 21 cm. The shears come with genuine leather sheath and cleaning and care cloth.
