Description from the seller

Scissors made of silver (including the blade), in the style of the figures probably of Northern European production (Germany/Netherlands). Catalogued as "grape scissors" they could also be used for sewing or other purposes. They bear a mark on the blade as shown in the photo. They were gently tested with the reagent at a minimally invasive point, removing the patina. They are solid silver and not plated.
