This is a classic, two-tone pair of scissors from the Showa 40s (1965-1974). At the time, when most scissors were silver, these were rare and luxurious with their two-tone design, featuring a gold handle and a different color for the cutting blades. They are still in good working condition. They are also stamped with the logo "Maruichi." If you like classic or antique items, how about these? Thank you for looking.
