I am a garden clipper. Although I am iron, I have a green thumb. I love getting into shrubs and bushes to get rid of unwanted visitors. Beware old branches, I’m coming for you.
Curator's Notes
With a comfortable top rest for your thumb and grip for your index and middle finger, these everyday garden clippers are the perfect tool for your pruning needs. I love the finish created in the forging process, along with the addition of the leather sheath and band. Iron and leather are two materials that age beautifully over the course of time and these sturdy clippers will surely accompany you for all your gardening needs. I wouldn't be surprised if these shears stood the test of time and end up being passed down to future generations.
