Taira Koryu Scissors
For Flower Arrangers
Smaller hand-laminated scissors in the traditional Koryu flower arranging style, with characteristically short and stubby blades for cutting through tougher woody stems than florists may typically encounter.
Beyond ikebana and flower arranging, these are equally suitable for cut flowers and a touch of light pruning in the garden, and they are absolutely lovely, beautifully crafted and extremely sharp
