Experience precision and craftsmanship with the 8″ Gold Plated Wilkinson Sidebent Fabric Shears, handcrafted in Sheffield, England by Whiteley
These shears combine the timeless, innovative sidebent design, first patented by Thomas Wilkinson in 1800, with a luxurious gold-plated finish. After acquiring Wilkinson√¢s business in 1875, Whiteley integrated this revolutionary design, ensuring smooth, uninterrupted cuts. The sidebent design allows the shears to rest flat against the tabletop, preventing the bottom bow from catching on the surface for a seamless cutting experience.
Ideal for dressmakers and tailors who require long, clean lines, these gold-plated fabric shears are built for both precision and comfort. Each pair is meticulously crafted with over two centuries of scissor-making heritage, ensuring exceptional durability and reliability. The gold-plated finish adds an elegant touch, making these shears not only a functional tool but a luxurious addition to any sewing space. These shears represent true quality, craftsmanship, and style.
