Solid Silver Grape Scissors With Vine Design

An elegant pair of solid silver grape shears, featuring an openwork design of vine leaves and grape clusters.

This type of scissors was used in table settings to delicately cut small bunches of grapes during service, without crushing the fruit. The handles feature a beautiful naturalistic design composed of vine branches, chiseled leaves, and grape clusters in relief.

The piece has a striking decorative presence, with a central hinge adorned with a floral motif and short, pointed blades. The openwork design of the handles lends the piece great finesse and charm.

A beautiful collector’s item, ideal for enthusiasts of antique silverware, tableware, and refined display pieces.

In good overall condition, with slight signs of use, minor surface marks, and a natural patina due to age.
