Everyday Scissors: Black

$25.00

Ultra-thin Japanese scissors that elevate the everyday act of cutting. Precision-engineered in black with a minimalist silhouette, these are tools that make you wonder why all scissors aren't this elegant. Teflon-coated blades ensure smooth sailing through paper, tape, and tasks. Also available in silver – because even practical objects deserve a choice.

From Before Breakfast, a London-based stationery company. The name of the brand is a homage to the quote found in Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll, the sequel to Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland: “Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.” They state "The world that is your desk is made up of a number of objects you use, whether it is for work or for your studies. Stationery probably makes up the smallest objects in this world, but the possibilities you have with pen and paper are endless. "

Dimensions: 5.5" x 2.25" x .15"
Material: high quality Japanese stainless steel

These carefully chosen and crafted pieces represent a considered mix of the esoteric and the highly pragmatic. Many of these simple things reflect the hand of the artisan or the quiet genius of the inventor. They are useful in ways that are difficult to quantify but, if pressed, we would say they make life a little more efficient and a lot more beautiful.

We would be great together -
