{"product_id":"japanese-thread-snips-sewing-forged-steel-6-purple","title":"Japanese Thread Snips for Sewing – Forged Steel 6” – Purple","description":"\u003cp\u003ePurple, 6 inches long, and unused for around four decades — this is not the kind of Japanese thread snip that turns up every day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe substantial 150mm size gives much more room in the hand than a compact pair, while the 2.76-inch blade and simple spring-style form keep its identity firmly rooted in traditional Japanese thread snips.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade from forged steel, these were produced as working sewing tools. Their purpose is still the familiar one: trimming thread throughout sewing, embroidery, quilting, and detailed handwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYears in storage may have left small differences in the surface from one pair to another. Those marks are part of the history of an unused older tool, not signs of previous use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat makes this pair special is the combination rather than any one detail — the uncommon purple finish, difficult-to-find 150mm format, forged steel, and the fact that it has remained unused for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA traditional Japanese sewing tool with enough history and character to be interesting, but still meant to work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade in Japan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition Note: This is new old stock that has remained unused for around four decades or more.
