Beautiful scissors from the Henkel Company ( not to be confused with Henckel) from Fremont OH. Dating these was a bit of a challenge but what I was able to find out was that the Henkel company only existed as JUST Henkel from 1906 to 1919, after that they became Henkel-Clauss because of the confusion with the above mentioned Henckel. These are stamped with just Henkel so it is my belief they date to that time but I will not swear to it. They also have the number 17 inside the opposite blade. They're absolutely gorgeous and cut perfectly.
Measures just over 5" long.
Excellent vintage condition. Some of the silver colors has darkened in areas but this only adds to its timeless charm.
