Grape Shears - Vine & Grapes - London 1883 by Francis Higgins - 18.2cm long; 144g - GE/7628

These are a fine quality pair of silver grape scissors decorated in the traditional vine and grapes and made by the master silversmith Francis Higgins.

Made during the mid-Victorian period for trimming individual grapes from the vine, these good-looking grape shears have cast handles and a great feeling of quality. They are hallmarked to the inside of the blades and are in fine condition.
