After looking at that pretty object, I went through a book for
scissors collectors: 'La folie des Ciseaux' by Frederique Crestin-
Billet and the closest I found p. 58 is in silver and has two fancy
lions around the handles. It says the blades are of steel. I cannot
say what they were used for but are beautiful. Thanks for the
pictures, Clay.
And to speak about lace, I just began a Binche pattern by Kumiko
Nakazaki: Campanula from Collection 1 with egyptian cotton 140/2.
